Ok, the wife and I are considering purchasing a belated Christmas gift for my father in-law -- a snowblower (we thought he had one). They live in the Ft. Wayne, Indiana area (about 125 miles northeast of Indy) and get a decent amount of snow ever year. Their driveway is extremely small (holds about 4 standard cars) but the FIL is 62 years-old and shovels it by hand, which worries both of us since he has a pacemaker and has had 2 heart attacks. He's the kind that would never buy a snowblower for himself.
For this kind of work, I don't think a 2 stage snowblower is necessary. An electric unit would probably work, but I don't think he'd like that. Any recommendations on a single-stage unit? Let's say we want to spend in the $400 to $500 range.
