A snow plow for attachment to a vehicle, preferably an all terrain vehicle, the snow plow including a mounting apparatus having a mounting frame, the mounting frame including at least one mounting upright. The snow plow further including a plow blade. The preferred plow blade has a mold board including a main surface, a back surface and a plate secured proximate the back of the mold board, the plow also has a rubber scraper proximate the main surface and a retention apparatus constructed and arranged to disengageably secure the plow blade with the mounting upright; wherein the retention apparatus allows the plow blade to pivot with respect to the mounting upright such that the rubber scraper can pivot away from the mounting upright when the plow blade is in a working orientation and the vehicle moves in a direction rearward from the plow blade.

What is claimed is: 1. A plow blade for attachment to a mounting apparatus attached to a vehicle, the plow blade comprising: a mold board having a top, a bottom, a front and a back; wherein the mold board is made of extruded aluminum; and a retention apparatus, the retention apparatus including a r
What is claimed is: 1. A plow blade for attachment to a mounting apparatus attached to a vehicle, the plow blade comprising: a mold board having a top, a bottom, a front and a back; wherein the mold board is made of extruded aluminum; and a retention apparatus, the retention apparatus including a retention member secured to the top of the mold board and a plate secured proximate the back of the mold board; wherein the retention member is constructed and arranged to disengageably secure the plow blade to the mounting apparatus and the plate provides a contact surface against which the mounting apparatus can push the plow blade; wherein the contact surface of the plate is positioned generally parallel to the back of the mold board and separates the mold board from the mounting apparatus when the plow blade is disengageably secured to the mounting apparatus and the mounting apparatus is in use to push the plow blade. 2. The plow blade of claim 1, wherein the plow blade further includes at least two fasteners, one of which is connected to the mold board proximate the top and one of which is connected to the mold board proximate the bottom to collectively secure the retention apparatus to the mold board. 3. The plow blade of claim 1, wherein the mold board includes a scraper holding channel extending from the bottom of the mold board and the plow blade further includes a rubber scraper operatively secured within the scraper holding channel. 4. The plow blade of claim 3, wherein the scraper holding channel includes a ridge that restrains the rubber scraper from downward movement within the channel when the rubber scraper is retained within the channel. 5. The plow blade of claim 4, wherein the rubber scraper has a top end and the top end has a shape that compliments the shape of scraper holding channel so that the top end of the scraper mates with the scraper holding channel to operatively secure the scraper to within the scraper holding channel. 6. The plow blade of claim 1, the retention apparatus further including first and second complimentary fastening elements; wherein the top of the mold board defines an attachment channel sized to receive the first fastening element such that the first and second fastening elements can be engaged to secure the retention member to the mold board when the first fastening element is secured at least partially within the attachment channel and the second fastening element is secured to the first fastening element; wherein the first and second complimentary fastening elements are a threaded bolt and a reciprocally threaded nut, respectively. 7. The plow blade of claim 1, wherein the mold board is a one-piece aluminum extrusion. 8. The plow blade of claim 1, wherein the back of the mold board includes at least one foot. 9. The plow blade of claim 1, the mold board having two pieces, a first piece and a second piece; the first piece being interconnected with the second piece in a joint between the two pieces that runs from the first end to the second end. 10. A snow plow for attachment to a vehicle, the snow plow comprising: a mounting apparatus having a mounting frame that includes at least one mounting upright; a plow blade; the plow blade including a retention apparatus and a mold board; the mold board having a top, a bottom, a front and a back; wherein the mold board is made of extruded aluminum; the retention apparatus including a retention member secured to the top of the mold board and a plate secured proximate the back of the mold board; wherein the retention member is constructed and arranged to disengageably secure the plow blade to the mounting apparatus and the plate provides a contact surface against which the mounting upright can push the plow blade; wherein the contact surface of the plate is positioned generally parallel to the back of the mold board and separates the mold board from the mounting apparatus when the plow blade is disengageably secured to the mounting apparatus and the mounting apparatus is in use to push the plow blade. 11. The snow plow of claim 10, wherein the plow blade includes a scraper holding channel extending from the bottom of the mold board and a rubber scraper operatively secured within the scraper holding channel. 12. The snow plow of claim 11, wherein the scraper holding channel includes a ridge that restrains the rubber scraper from downward movement within the channel when the rubber scraper is retained within the channel. 13. The snow plow of claim 12, wherein the rubber scraper has a top end and the top end has a shape that compliments the shape of scraper holding channel so that the top end of the scraper mates with the scraper holding channel to operatively secure the scraper to within the scraper holding channel. 14. The snow plow of claim 11, wherein the rubber scraper is made of skirtboard rubber. 15. The snow plow of claim 10, the retention apparatus including a retention member; wherein the retention member is constructed and arranged to slideably secure the plow blade to the mounting upright. 16. The snow plow of claim 10, wherein the mold board is a one-piece aluminum extrusion. 17. The snow plow of claim 10, wherein the mounting apparatus includes two mounting uprights interconnected by an interconnecting member. 18. The snow plow of claim 10, wherein the back of the mold board includes at least one foot. 19. The snow plow of claim 10, the mold board having two pieces, a first piece and a second piece; the first piece being interconnected with the second piece in a joint between the two pieces that runs from the first end to the second end.
