What makes the 7900 so good is it’s horsepower to weight ratio. Nothing stock comes close accept the MS660.

Ive been selling the PS7900 since they have come out back in 01' I believe and YES TO REAL USERS not just weekend warriors THIS SAW DOES LAST... You PNW guys are so married to stihl its unbelievable FIND A PNW DEALER WITH SOME GONADS to Take the DOLMAR dealership on and you will be very impressed.
And Andy with all his time will tell attitude come on now TELL YOUR BOSS to take the dealership on and YOU will be impressed as well. stihl is not the ONLY game out there..

Tell Dolmar to get a warehouse out here with overnight parts delivery for next to nothing (every part, every device in the product line new and old) and maybe... 30-45 days credit and TV ads would be nice... and a public "we'll never sell though box stores" too..
Stihl make it very easy to be loyal. And just saws isn't enough... we need a full competitive product line. The real problem for any established dealer is simply "why"? Why stock a saw or whatever that won't sell any more then a similar stihl device? If a guy walks into the store to buy, he walks out with a saw, weed eater, blower or whatever... Two brands? na...
Nothing stops any number of guys from opening a Dolmar dealership out here, but for some reason it doesn't happen.

I am not slamming Dolmar Just have no experience with them except a guy who has one (and Stihl and Husky) said he doubted they would hold up like a Stihl. Our logging history doomed most brands and I think you can blame th 045,051 and especilly the 056 and 76 for that.
You say we have a closed mind but ya gotta know the history out here to understand us.
If Cuttin scott says they hold up well I take him at his word. Read alot about the power to weight of the 7900 but don't remember reading much about reliablity and construction except the problems with the airfilter covers. Hey Scott can you give specifics of any repeat issues you hve seen?
In case you haven't noticed, the new Stihls DO NOT hold up like the old ones bro. The more plastic, the shorter life. NO NEW SAW OUT LASTS LIKE THE OLD ONES... Just the way it is. I attribute it more to the changes in oil ratio, plastic vs. aluminum and complexity of electronics, most from china or japan...

I'll rephrase that (modifying my position to incorporate everything I learned from AS)
All saws are junk. Anyone that buys or uses any saw of any brand for any reason is a complete idiot:greenchainsaw:

Come on now some of those handsaw come in handy.

Are you comparing the new homeowner saws to the old pro models or what? This is the first post I've seen questioning the quality of Stihl.
