How the quiz decides
Gravel driveways and hard-packed plow ridges are the two things single-stage machines handle worst, so either one points you to a two-stage. After that, driveway size and typical snowfall set the clearing width. Your storage space and how you feel about small-engine maintenance decide between gas and battery.
