Name MN's Next Snowplow: 'Taylor Drift,' 'Barbie’s Dream Plow'

MINNE "SNOW" TA — It's a tradition unlike any other. The Minnesota Department of Transportation is once again holding a "name a snowplow" contest.

Late last year, the agency invited the public to help name another round of snowplows; one for each MnDOT district in the state.

After more than 8,000 name ideas were submitted, MnDOT narrowed the list down to 50 finalists. Now, voters must select up to eight of their favorite names before midnight on Sunday, Jan. 28.

Vote online here.

Past winners include Betty Whiteout, Plowy McPlowFace, Ctrl Salt Delete, Snowbi Wan Kenobi and The Truck Formerly Known As Plow.

Below are the 50 finalists for the 2024 contest:
