I have a two lane driveway too, but my house is also on the bottom of the hill next to a retaining wall. Last year when everyone else was getting 4 inches of snow I was getting snow drifts that were building up to 2 feet blocking off more than half my driveway. Worse snow day I was getting up to almost 3 feet and that took me 5-6 hours to dig myself out of. If I get a snowblower and it cuts my time down to half hour, I'm laughing. Big contraption to store yes... but I hope its worth it cuz "winter is coming" and I'm told it'll be worse than the last.
