How much equipment?

What happens here

Lucas explains Denness Leasing's core business model: they procure new heavy equipment for Arctic's extensive snow removal operations and then sell these machines after one year of intense but well-maintained use. He highlights that this program allows them to continuously refresh Arctic's fleet with the newest equipment while offering buyers high-quality, lightly used machines. Lucas specifically mentions focusing on models like the Case SV280B skid steers (74 hp) and Case 521G/621G wheel loaders (2.5 to 3.5 cubic yard buckets), as well as Volvo L60H, L70H, and L90H loaders. He points out that these machines typically accumulate very low hours (20 to 120 hours) during their single season of use, depending on the severity of the winter.

Goal: Explain the unique equipment acquisition and resale model.
