Snow Plows - What to get.
I have the Western HTS on my 15. It does a great job, I did over 50 houses last season. I would recommend getting a 2in lift kit for the front as it does bottom out on some of my driveways. This is my 3rd Western Plow and have never had an issue.
Plow
Not sure if you ever picked up a plow, but I went with a Snow Dogg md75, found it on Craigslist for around 1700, 400 for the mount and you should be able to have it installed for around 400. And as far as snow blowing that's a pain, it nice to be able to drop the plow, and drive out of the driveway and off to work...

I went with the Snow Dogg md75 as well. I just removed it from my 05 (bought/installed plow in 11) w/5.4 and it worked great! I was staking snow 8' high. I am now installing it on my 17 5.0 because, after 6 years of use of personal use, it's still like new... I paid just under $4k back in 11 and st gonna cost me $4-500 for the new 2017 mount/harness...
I purposely bought the 5.0 with plow prep., would have rather the turbo-6; buy I am very happy so far with the power form the 8...
As others have mentioned, if your gonna be doing a lot of driveway/lots, get a 250! The front suspension on the 150's takes a beating... But hey, ball joints & struts are cheap and it's better than freezing using a snow blower
