I'm in the same situation except I'm 72. It seems I rent one every two years and although Sunbelt treated me well, I've had issues each time I've rented the last 3 times. Gas/electric don't seem to be as common as they were the first time I rented probably 20 years ago. My buddy and I talked to a dealer two years ago. He sold Haulette. I've never operated that brand but it had features that set it apart in that you could swap control panels for trouble shooting purposes. There's a tree trimmer guy on u tube (cottontop 3) that bought a new 45 foot one about a year ago and has replaced it with a 90 foot one and as of about 2 months ago was talking about selling it. If you're not going off grid for extended periods I think the electric power ones would be more prevalent/more choices. The last one I rented in July had a gas engine and that saved the day for me. It may be my operating technique, but the ones I've rented I end up wishing the boom had another section so I could go over something and back down without touching the thing I went over. So if you haven't used many be aware of that limitation. Let us know your decision. New ones go for roughly the price of a decked out pickup or roughly $1000+ per foot of reach.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
