Did meters give it away?

20-30 ft incline. Not sure on %.

Agreed reddit attracts the folks with the loudest voices but doesn't necessarily represent a place. I've met all sorts in Vermont, but generally folks here lean much longer than the rest of NE.

I think most people are just taken aback by the idea that not having someone to plow your driveway is such an emergency. Unless you are elderly or disabled of course.
Most people are used to dealing with snow...not trying to make you feel bad.

They're not much use at manual labor, but I guess you can give it a small scoop and see how it goes.

What’s your incline like? I myself am a long driveway enjoyer.

I agree. We got three feet and our plow guy had heart surgery. It is so thick and our driveway so long that a back up plow got stuck for over an hour. A shovel is a joke right now. Show some compassion people!

Now that's what I'm talking about!!
Reddit wins again.
And man I love r/Vermont!
I knew about the heat control valve, and had that set right, and I knew there was something under the dash. I figured I'd ask for specifics before going fishing. And you delivered!
Now I have heat!
Thanks kind internet stranger, for taking time out of your day to write that out. It was exactly what I was looking for. Virtual beers to you my friend. I'll pay it forward.

It's funny, I had wanted to move to Vermont until I read this sub. Vermonters are absolutely awful if this place is any indication, and this is from a Long Islander. Think they need to revisit for the rudest state.

Thank you. If only I could afford an ATV with a snow plow attachment and a snow blower or have a career that allows me the time off to spend hours shoveling 3 ft of snow off a 200 foot driveway. The lack of compassion here is stunning. God forbid that someone’s Plan A and Plan B falls through and they try to use a community to come up with a viable Plan C.

Thanks. That's exactly what I was looking for. No way I would have found them through Google without just guessing some keyword. Didn't even think to search 4x4.
Problem solved, thanks to comment below, but I'm definitely going to be taking it in there for any future mechanicals.

C’mon folks. Save the criticism for after they get some help. In the meantime, isn’t there somebody that they can call?

Thanks for the tip. That was the backup plan.
The part issue really sucks. Mine has only 210k on it, is in great shape, and I will be f'ing pissed if some little unavailable part takes it off the road.
Inexcusably wasteful business practice.
Anyway, have heat now thanks to comment below.

I’m sorry, I would do it but I’m a good 50 miles away. Try Front Porch Forum.

The upside is they'll be back in jersey by summer.
