Heavy machinery and seat time works wonders for the human disposition.

Have a couple trucks, a backhoe and my 7040 out plowing, so I've got 45 customers to keep happy, not just a driveway.
To get good deals on 3PH blowers, you need to be patient, and a little lucky too. Timing also helps.
I had a 50" Meteor that came with my B7100 as a package deal. When I got the B7610, I started looking for a good deal on a 60", since it has the power to handle it, and the 50" barely cover's its tracks with the wheels out their widest setting.
In Aug. of last year, I found a 60" Woods SB60 for $800. It wasn't in as nice of shape as my Meteor, but works pretty well. The impeller does have some wear, so I might get a set of those gap filler things for it, or weld some material onto the blades if I ever get time.
I held onto the Meteor until late October, and then listed in on Craigstlist for $1200. Best offer I got was $900, but I thought I could do better if I waited. I listed it again after the first big snow last December. This time for $1250. It was sold in 3 days.
