Most up here in the Rangeley/Eustis as well as the Northern Maine area all have secondary trucks or plows and take care of there own, Plowing really raises hell on a truck and was the reason why i never put one on my Duramax, But you can pick up a good older used one to do just that to maintain the driveway road worthy or not, He will figure it out but from the sounds of it, He's dealing with a lot of snow annually, Great problem to have ha ha.
