I used an 8HP Ariens for my time in middle/high school to do our driveway and several others in the neighborhood. It was purchased used in 1973 and lasted until about 1990. Briggs and Stratton engine and electric start.

Try to find a similar used machine. They last a long time, so used isn't a problem. You probably can find a used one for $500.
