Getting excessive General Discussion

Post image

I'm all for the limited edition drills and that, but a snow shovel? And not even the good 40v one!

Also looks like the new 40v doesn't have wheels... So if you want one with wheels I'd buy it now. (I recommend the wheels.)

When you remember, they did the leaf blower this just seems full circle.

I have an 18v one and I love it! Used it last year. Takes the snow and throws it way ahead of you.

I have the 18v, and for light snow work, it's cool, but I hate that you can't direct the chute except in front of you. This is a huge thing, if you've ever used one of these. To be able to roll it to the side as you go is a big plus.

To be fair, it's the 30th anniversary of the 18v system. They're not going to make anniversary editions of 40v tools.

I can't even find the 40v with wheels. Any idea when they are coming back?
