Question:
How high does the plow lift? I’ve got a sloped driveway and a little hump where it meets the street.

Kyle, the HomePlows like # ME53FR lift about 8" in travel mode. That’s plenty to clear curbs or the edge of your driveway. If your slope’s steep, you’ll appreciate the float feature - it lets the blade ride level without digging in.
Is your drive asphalt or gravel? That helps determine whether to add snowshoes or not so it doesn't dig into the ground on the HomePlow models.
If you think you'll need a little more clearance for the HomePlow setup, I'd go with those optional snowshoes # ME94FR. These are typically best for gravel applications so that the plow doesn't dig into the gravel too much, but it may also be helpful in bumpy areas like you're describing. They are adjustable as well for different applications. Do you ever plan to plow on gravel?
