I have a big honkin two stage and it does the asphalt driveway bare (as long as the skid plates are up)
One of my driveways goes up a rather steep hill, so I did have to get chains.
If mine starts chewing more snow than it can keep up with, it starts riding up over the snow, so I know I have to slow down.
It'll pick up the newspaper and spit it out 50 feet.

Only complaint is reverse gear is too slow.
I don't have any trouble getting it into the back of my pick-up or back out.
I have a rather large yard.
This is how I rake leaves.
I don't "play" in the snow, either.
