Can the Plowser Snow Plow Be Used on the Back of an SUV?  

Published 10/30/2026

Question:

Ive got a 2021 Toyota Highlander with a hitch on the back. Would I be able to use this plow by backing down my driveway? I dont really want to put a hitch on the front just to clear snow a few times a year.

Hey Dave! You sure can use the Plowser Snow Plow # PL82XR on the back of your Highlander, and that's actually one of the nice things about this setup. You don't need a front hitch or any special wiring or hydraulics. As long as you've got a 2 inch receiver and the center of the hitch opening sits between 11 and 19 inches off the ground, you're in business.

We actually have an employee here at etrailer who used one on the back of his minivan, and it worked pretty well for clearing his small driveway! So you definitely don't need a big pickup truck to put one of these to work.

You'd just unfold the plow, secure it with the hinge pins, and slide it into your receiver. Then you can back straight down your driveway and push the snow as you go. The 90 inch blade handles typical snowfalls up to about 8 inches, so it's a handy option for clearing the driveway without dragging out the snow blower. Just keep in mind that it's designed for straight passes, so you don't want to turn while you're pushing snow. And when you're finished, it folds in half for storage instead of taking up half your garage.

Does your driveway run pretty straight, or do you have a curve to work around?
