It doesn't look or sound like they made many changes at all in the Drag Pro. Considering the trouble your friend had last year I still wouldn't buy one.
@@lowercherty well a lot happens in a year it takes a couple days to make some better and stronger. Hopefully they could make a better back drag boss plow.
Stan, way to go again my man. I appreciate your honesty when speaking with the manufacturers, and truly admire you giving them kudos when they deserve it. You call it fair anytime you review a “big boy toy”. You embody the spirit of the hard working men and women who are dedicated to serving their client base and use these tools to accomplish that job. You are a role model to all young contractors and service people.
I've run backblades for years in Michigan and love them, only thing is that I've been pulled over by the State DOT and local police for the rear license plate being obstructed from the back blade. I talked myself out of a ticket a few times. Keep up the great work Stan.
Yeah, when the Boss employee said "some customers were breaking more shear pins than they would like".... I was pretty damn sure he saw that video, haha! And likely, getting a lot of irritated phone calls from lots of other operators, too. Good for you Boss, listening and making measurable improvements. Hopefully the problems on that lighter-duty model will be a thing of the past.
I just mounted attachment for a backblade with a winch to lift it up and weight will allow for down motion. Running it for over 10 yrs with very little problem on 1/2 mile drive.
Very interesting. Thanks for making another video on it. Living up here in Montana we probably won’t see one at our dealers until next season. You went super quickly over the connection and disconnection of the plow. Would love to see the connection points a little better on just the plow without the 5th wheel part. Was hard to see how they changed the mounting on the plow or if it was identical. Also would love to see how and where the pins are connecting compared to the original sno power. (The main pins that connect the plow to the 5th wheel frame) a view from the back side showing it would be awesome to see the differences in design. Great video 👍 always love seeing you guys giving your personal no BS opinion and always a trustworthy source with the years behind you and time and abuse you guys put your equipment through.
Wow, nice build. Can hardly wait to see this jewel in some snow action. Think you're going to get your money's worth with this blade. I'm looking forward to seeing it put to the "Stanley test". All the best to you and the guys. Cheers!
I live in Minnesota and they aren't around here either. But we tried one a few years ago and could never plow without one now. Simply the best answer to truck plowing out there.
Not many companies extensively test their own equipment. It's always the grunts that brings the issues to light. Good to hear BOSS actually listens to their customers.
Yes they do, of course they do. Absolutely 100% most companies will test their own equipment, extensively. The ones that don't would be the outliers not the ones that do. You literally just made that up because that's your perception of things is that most companies don't test their products and it's absolutely not true. Look at any companies expenses especially in this industry and you'll see with a quick search just how much money and time is devoted to testing.
hello， This is corrine. We can provide carbide cutiing edge to you, do you have interesting? we can provide free sample to you to test the quality firstly. I am looking forward to your reply.
@DirtMonkey Perfect music transition!! I live down in Missouri and we don't need snow plows but a few times a year, yet to me knowledge is power. I'd rather know a million useless facts then to not know one fact I might need later on down the road.. Love the content..
Those small unit's are perfect for Apartment Complexes where you do have a lot of sidewalks in between them for "dog" walks which go around ponds and such.
Stan what would be cool with back drag pusher plows is if the center section could hydraulically angle left or right so that you could windrow either in reverse or forward one instance curb edges or long driveways
YES! Exactly. Boss watched that video and revamped their design! They saw what happened and listened to their customers and made VAST improvements. I Love that they did! Plus they reached out to help all existing customers with any issues they were having. Ive seen Boss do this twice now. They get much respect from me for that
It’s great to see companies do that to manny companies don’t give a crap and just think the name sells that’s one of the biggest reasons I support agco
I agree- Its easy to believe in a company that listens to their customers and responds. Its almost like your part of the company in a way. Like your voice is actually heard.
Looks all good with new shiny paint but how it really works will be in the battles ahead this winter. The wing cylinders seemed too low to me, but I could be wrong. Ice has a way of really packing in sometimes.
@@Dirtmonkey well i can't watch it bjt i love all ur videos are the yt servers down i cant watching vid rn i restarted my tablet and I ant get it does anything work for u or is it on my end
They should add a sensor/switch which illuminates a light (or possibly existing turn signal indicators) when either of the wings is not in the fully folded / box plow configuration as a warning If they are extended while driving down the road. It would also be cool to add some LED whip antennas similar to those used on sand rails so that the cutting edge would be extremely visible in your mirrors. I'd also add a camera mounted above the power unit enclosure so you can see how close you are getting to an object when backing up to it. And if made to swivel, it could also be useful in aligning the fifth rail when attaching.
Great detailed video thanks. Try to install mug flats on the rear of the truck to keep that flying salt & debris from the rear wheels save on chipping paint. So Stanley it’s been a year now how did the dodge truck hold up. Again great video. peace brother
Boss snowplows have been good to me. Yeah, they're expensive but you're also paying for some darn good customer service. Tim's got the warm and fuzzies for sure. Now he needs those light-up edge markers. Extra hotness.
I want to buy one they look great. I wish you could do a price break down on both of plows it would help to know the MSRP before calling the dealer. You know get the sticker shock out of the way.
I like the unit... Just have a question.. What about the exposed hydraulic lines and fittings on the cylinders? I would have to imagine that they would break off from the force from the pressure of snow hiring them.. For sure the wet heavy snow..
I am currently in the landscaping business-lawn mowing and a bit of yard work. My business is still pretty small but growing quickly. How would you recommend I get into the construction business from here?
Looks good, I am glad they bought the snow power design. Did they upgrade the cylinders them faster now You guys the first to have that? I don’t even see it on there site yet
Are you guys going to be running the new boss plow, and also are you going to run the new version of the original to see if the sheer pins are still an issue
Have you thought about welding a hitch reciever to the part that stays on the truck when you pull the two side pins? If you're able to make it work it may help with cutting the time down loading your equipment to the sites cause you'll be able to tow a trailer with the same truck without the hassle of disconnecting the bed pins and having to line it up.
Always cool videos!! I bought one of the first dragpro plows and love the idea and seen some of the flaws. Like the updates but what will they do for us that already own the first dragpros??
Stan how long is Tim’s truck back plow and plow on front Crew-Cab long bed 35’ long? Need airport to turn around no residential drives with tight turns with that truck. I like would rather have skidloader with a arctic sectional Sam would agree it looks like they really improved on the original design Have fun on Friday with more snow I’ll be waiting for the video.
Hey Stan, are you going to be trying out the new 7.3 gasser? If you are, you should do a vs video of the ram 6.4 vs the ford 7.3 gasser. Curious which one would be best for plowing/towing heavy equipment.
The maintenance Dept for the utility company I work for is upgrading all of their rear mount blades. I'm going to show the manager this video. Thank you Stanley.👍
Thank you once again for amazing content ! Ive been in the biz for 27 years up here in Central NY and would like to get into one of these back plows but we never had any dealers up this way. We do have Boss dealers and I wouldnt bother to buy one based off of your information on the older units. This new and improved set up looks legit and has my interest for sure !! Do you mind sharing how much these run ? Om guessing close to 8K tp 10K
I think these would work good in cny Kevin maybe not when we get pounded off the lake but sure would be faster with them few inch storms I'm 30 min north of syracuse
Lol i have no desire to buy one of these but still watch the whole thing cuz it was interesting the engineering of it. However i have never heard of side by each. I've always said comparing something side by side. Lol
If you watch precision transmission the reverse clutches are pretty beefy as good as low drive gears. You might want an accumulator upgrade though to improve lockup.
I've looked at them for a couple of years and just picked up a contract where I felt like 'fit'...35 duplexes with short wide driveways that feed into a private road. Previous contractor just back dragged with a v plow and then salted heavily to clean up the mess left behind. I'm hoping we can leave a cleaner surface to start with and hit it with brine to finish
Hey Stanley! Just curious: If its a pusher plow as well as a puller why didn't #anyone demonstrate the wings moving to that reverse drive pusher position anywhere - at least in the demonstration part - of the video? Plenty of Sno-power vids showing & demonstrating the same... #Thanks and #ThanksForYourVideosToo God bless. #Spyder4mGRMichigan
The machines used in Colorado, Wyoming, Montana etc are beefier & actually work for highway clearing. These will be stressed doing parking lots & a neighborhood or two.
The only negative I've heard about about loading or stressing a truck in reverse is with how the ring and pinion gears are cut in the axles the gears aren't designed for a lot of stress in reverse and it may cause excessive wear.

BOSS plows, made right here in the USA, and just a couple miles from here. Nice.

After RUclips came back on I came to this video right away. Nice video Stan, keep em coming
Thanks, will do!
A salesman will get you in the door, a good service department will bring you back!
YES! well said
So excited about this!! We bought 2, the first is getting put on tomorrow. I cannot wait to see it in action!!
I've run backblades for years in Michigan and love them, only thing is that I've been pulled over by the State DOT and local police for the rear license plate being obstructed from the back blade. I talked myself out of a ticket a few times. Keep up the great work Stan.
In Minnesota we have to have front and back license plates. Both mine are covered up-never had an issue . I guess its a case by case basis.
mount the plate on the back blade somewhere, it'll keep you out of trouble lol
Ooooo it has a float option! Amazing, that's one big thing I wish our Snopowers had, alot of our lots, roads and houses we plow are hilly .
Thats handy
Stan your reviews are the best. And to have the engineers in your review....what can I say.. GREAT JOB as usual
Stan is kind of the best salesman Boss could ask for. And since he ain't gettin' paid for his opinion, I trust it a lot more.
Wow they put some thought and design into that new back blade!
Awesome!
I think so too!
I think you can take a lot of credit for being the driving force for the engineers to go back to the table and re-work the design of this plow.
Im just glad they made this. Its like the Godzilla of Pull plows now
Funny, I just watched the video from last year where the guy broke 88 sheer pins on his lol
I was going to say the exact same thing lol he was going in on it
Yeah, when the Boss employee said "some customers were breaking more shear pins than they would like".... I was pretty damn sure he saw that video, haha! And likely, getting a lot of irritated phone calls from lots of other operators, too. Good for you Boss, listening and making measurable improvements. Hopefully the problems on that lighter-duty model will be a thing of the past.
I was thinking the same lol
it's not the same plow. with that said this thing is hideous, the mount is ridiculous.
I just mounted attachment for a backblade with a winch to lift it up and weight will allow for down motion. Running it for over 10 yrs with very little problem on 1/2 mile drive.

They connect almost identical to sno-powers. Just the frame changed as they beefed it up.
@@Dirtmonkey Thanks 👍 I chatted with Brycen about it. Keep up the great work.
RUclips’s workin now and ready to see this awesome video
Hope you enjoy it Zak!
@@Dirtmonkey loved the video as always and I’m ready to buy one of these and try it out for this winter
I've got one of those Monroe Plows at work things a beast. Heavy, scrapes really well.

I enjoy these videos. Here in Idaho everyone has a boss I see why now.
Glad you enjoy the content. Thanks!
Loving the channel, just found it last week
Awesome, thank you!
love when you post vids
i wait when is stan posting love the content
Thanks Brother!
I'm from Massachusetts and I've never seen a pull plow being used anywhere near me, but this could be a game changer
I was just having this conversation with my wife the other day. We live near Worcester and I’ve never seen one of these around here.
I live in Minnesota and they aren't around here either. But we tried one a few years ago and could never plow without one now. Simply the best answer to truck plowing out there.
Hi,it's good for lighter snow most likely but I can't see plowing a 15 inch stormed with that because it would pile up to much under the frame.
Love your videos! Learn something new every time. Keep up the amazing work!
Glad to hear it! thank you

Nice!
Thanks for the awesome content and nice piece of equipment stay safe and take care
Thanks, you too!
@@Dirtmonkey no problem friend and thank you 👍
I spray Pam in the corners of my drag plow and it works great for keeping the snow from sticking
Those small unit's are perfect for Apartment Complexes where you do have a lot of sidewalks in between them for "dog" walks which go around ponds and such.
They look nimble
and easy to store in some storage closet too
Or plowing a sidewalk that goes through a gate
Stan what would be cool with back drag pusher plows is if the center section could hydraulically angle left or right so that you could windrow either in reverse or forward one instance curb edges or long driveways
The wings create a Z pattern to do that same thing.
Cant wait to hear how its works for u Stan
Thanks for the Vid 🤘🏻
You and me both!
I thought you guys did a vid a year ago with a guy that had one. It was breaking all those sheer pins.
He did I’m assuming they took that video to heart and redesigned the plow
YES! Exactly. Boss watched that video and revamped their design! They saw what happened and listened to their customers and made VAST improvements. I Love that they did! Plus they reached out to help all existing customers with any issues they were having. Ive seen Boss do this twice now. They get much respect from me for that

I thought I remember hearing boss bought the design from sno power?
Dude had a beautiful mullet
If you have a lot of sidewalks service then the BOSS Snowrator is a really nice tool to have!
Looks all good with new shiny paint but how it really works will be in the battles ahead this winter. The wing cylinders seemed too low to me, but I could be wrong. Ice has a way of really packing in sometimes.
Yes it does- We did test it out last night. Plowing Wet cement style snow- Vid coming soon

I just bought a snowrator with the salter thingy for the back for 15k for my commercial side walks this year excited to test it out
I bet you'll love it
You are extremely trusting to leave all your equipment out there. I would be so worried about someone stealing it or damaging it
Snow rators are awesome perfect machine for small areas. It’s like mini tank lol
They should add a sensor/switch which illuminates a light (or possibly existing turn signal indicators) when either of the wings is not in the fully folded / box plow configuration as a warning If they are extended while driving down the road.

$9,900 for the heavier model. $7,900 for the lighter one
Are these available for this season? Will it fit a Ford F 350 with a short box? Not many of these in NH, we usually plow with fisher products.
So whats your go plow truck. I see you have ram and ford. If you had to buy plow truck tomorrow which would it be

Lol i have no desire to buy one of these but still watch the whole thing cuz it was interesting the engineering of it. However i have never heard of side by each. I've always said comparing something side by side. Lol
Its a Minnesota thing or just a Me thing probably
Whats better to start with short iron or the drag pro
Both are good but Boss has more service locations
isn't it also good because in rwd trucks it will add weight and give you better traction?
You should run more Boss Stan!
Im agreeing with you.
Will that still do the reverse box like the snowpiwer?
Yes
Hi Stan, I tried going through the comments but could not find a mention about the price. How much is it installed?
If you watch precision transmission the reverse clutches are pretty beefy as good as low drive gears. You might want an accumulator upgrade though to improve lockup.
Hey, Stan. I just liked your video even when RUclips was down.
Thank you, thank you, Thank you!!!!
May I ask a question? I can I use on my ATV snow plow blade to keep the snow from sticking. This last snow sucked.
Honestly I don't know- I just kick mine off or bang it when it builds up
@@Dirtmonkey
Thanks
Spray the blade with Pam cooking spray.
Why does the new and improved drag pro and stop that stop before the sheer pin?
Does the wings go all the way back like the snow power
yes it does
do you have any experience with heated wiper blades?
Hey Danny, how come you are displaying names of songs and the song are not playing
We keep them low while people are talking
Do they sell you a news transmission too? If you use this better have a huge trans cooler .
It looks like you can put a pin in it when stowed so its easier on the hydraulic system
LOL! John didn’t seem too pleasant...
Id get camera shy too!
So you're telling us you're going to be plowing like a boss? Pun intended
I am😂

@@Dirtmonkey there Is only a handful of polock jokes the rest are true stories
Do these guys offer retrofits or upgrades on older units.?

Hey Stanley! Just curious: If its a pusher plow as well as a puller why didn't #anyone demonstrate the wings moving to that reverse drive pusher position anywhere - at least in the demonstration part - of the video? Plenty of Sno-power vids showing & demonstrating the same... #Thanks and #ThanksForYourVideosToo God bless.
#Spyder4mGRMichigan
it clearly is a pusher but they should have demonstrated it. maybe they're still wiring that truck up? might be a reason why its still in the shop.
I always liked boss over other names for front plows because dealer network and financing
Since it fastens to the bed and the hitch, is that a standard spacing? Or is it adjustable?
It is adjustable
The machines used in Colorado, Wyoming, Montana etc are beefier & actually work for highway clearing. These will be stressed doing parking lots & a neighborhood or two.
Interesting! Ive used Pull plows on commercial work for years with no worries.
The only negative I've heard about about loading or stressing a truck in reverse is with how the ring and pinion gears are cut in the axles the gears aren't designed for a lot of stress in reverse and it may cause excessive wear.
If the gears are set right it wont affect it
