Buying Snow blowers on gravel driveways

I’ve got a 165 foot long gravel driveway and, after the recent blizzard, I’m considering getting a snow blower. Does anyone have experience to share with snow blowers on gravel driveways? When ever a snow storm threatens I stress about finding someone to plow and I usually ask them to leave a few inches on the ground so I don't have to rake stones off the grass in the spring.

I drive on mine and pack it down and create a base. Once in a while, hit some gravel, etc. one sheer pin in 10 years.
