I use a fleece zip up hooded jacket I got off Amazon for about $40 and a larger winter jacket without hood over top. The fleece is warm. Just make sure you get a winter jacket that repels water and doesn't let the wind through... Basically a canvas material.

I use this combo to clear snow with my snowthrower on my tractor, exposed to the wind and snow and I've kept warm.

Trick is layers... T-shirt, sweatshirt, zip up hooded jacket and winter jacket. Make sure you have good gloves too. Once your hands get cold, you can't seem to feel warm no matter what (if you're like me).

I second a garden tractor with attachments. I like the older IH Cub Cadets. The early MTD Cubs (80's-mid 90's) are really good too. Currently have a 1976 Cub Cadet 1450 and love it - it's a tank. Takes about 2 minutes to remove the mower deck. My son and I put the snowthrower on in about 10 minutes. You can get a snow blade for it as well if you just want to plow. You can find a decent one for anywhere between $500-$1000 on FB marketplace. Very simple to work on and it eliminates different machines not being used in the off season taking up space. šŸ‘šŸ˜ŽšŸ‘

No doubt. I have a 1956 GE Liberator stove that I use daily. Nothing wrong with it other than the clock doesn't work. May not be the most efficient but hot dog, that thing works all the time and every time. Oven is dialed in precisely and even the Sensi-temp burner still works (yes, they had these back in the 50's). šŸ‘šŸ˜ŽšŸ‘
