Snow plow question
Well this is prob a stupid idea. But just wondering. What kind of problems would you get from putting a snow plow if even possible on a 2wd V6. Would the truck even be able to handle it. I know the manual says don't do it. I am just wondering if anyone has. I'm not doin it. Just a thought I been wondering about. Lol. Thanks for any replies.

the plow being on the front along with the engine weight takes all the weight off the rear drive tires leaving the truck with no traction in the snow that it is trying to plow. 4wd is very much needed as the truck is worse in the snow in 2wd then it would be without the plow. even tire chains would be a very limited help without a considerable amount of weight added to the back of the truck. the V6 would also be very likely be short on power once the blade fills with snow.
