Default Never to early for a snow removal question!

I was wondering about attaching a snow blower to my truck.

I see companies with snow plows, I'm not sure how well they work. I'd like some info on how one would go about removing snow from a driveway with it.

And how would a snow blower mount onto my truck? (picture in album)

Would it mess up my truck, it has an 8ft bed and I have no idea about the counter weight?

What I'd like to do is buy a small machine the city uses on side walks, that would be awesome lol... Put some Breeze flags on it!!! heck yeah!

Yeah pretty much, I have seen pictures of the snow blower attachments mounted on the back of trucks, you'd have to reverse into the driveway and what not. It's pretty interesting.
