4. If you have a paved driveway, I would go with a separate snowblower.

When I had my Sears 16hp tractor with the snowblower attachment, and if we had a wettish snow of 8" or more, I would just go down my driveway, and back up the neighbor's driveway, as he had a Sears tractor with a snow plow, chains & weights, but couldn't push the heavy snow. Of course, I don't know what you can afford, so don't want to sound snobby. Just don't expect too much as what these sales departments claim their machines can do. You might do some research on people's experiences with lawn tractors on the "Gardenweb.com", which I found very helpful in my last tractor purchase. Go to the 'forums' secton, and then to 'tractors'.
