But I'm going to ask anyhow. I just read a post how a salesman told one of you that a Husky was better than a Stihl because "the bearings are better", which I'm pretty sure is BS. Anyhow, since I'm going to have Dolmars in my shop, and of course I want to sell them, as I think they're a great saw, but that doesn't mean every model beats every comparable saw from Husky or Stihl....
What I'm asking is, and I don't want to start a snowball fight here, is WHAT, exactly, is *better* about each, from your honest experience? I know that this could potentially be a deadly 30 page thread, but that's not what I'm after.
Stuff like, Dolmar I see uses Stainless Steel mufflers, at least on some of them. Do they all? I don't know much about the other brands, and I'm not trying to gather info to knock on Stihl or Husky, I'm just gathering info so I don't sound like a moron if someone asks me a question. I'm an honest guy, which is why I'm a lousy salesman!! Anyhow, I know opinions are going to weigh in on this, and please don't turn this into an argument about which is better, just want the facts on *WHY* some things are better. I did a search, but didn't really see what I was after, but I've done a ton of reading on here, and learned a lot!
For instance, how are the repair parts prices? Are any of them drastically better/worse on fuel consumption? That kind of stuff. And, if anyone wants to tell me to shut up and go read , post a link for me and I'd appreciate it! Thanks in advance, Justin
