You're right that is a great view and it must be nice to use a lift.

I love them only if price with lift is fees able or can line up enough work for same day or week to justify. Usually a weeks worth. What did that cost you to rent (the lift) if you don't mind?paying

The price I quote includes the price of the lift, so it doesn't affect my bottom line.. Lift was only $85

No rap pat!!!! I have a local tree guy wanting $2800 per day but got a guy offering $2700 with delivery and pick up for a week. Every job site requires just the right machine esp. Where I am in very hilly territory with lots of trees and power lines to take into account. Underground irrigation, dry wells etc etc. You really need to plan out articulation manuverability to get to tight areas.
I always download the tech. Sheets to see if it works. More rural areas with open flat ground are far more forgiving with what machine you can use.

well his point was "its the busy season and we need it daily". Bite me.
The other guy was at about $540 per day for a 60' that supposedly due to the tracks 6 pounds per sq/ft pressure.
since I needed to get to 45ft extended 25ft out I would of needed to put my lightest guy up there! see chart.
This house was just down from mine, had a great view! And always fun when you get to play the lift
