Here's the one I took to TN. Running stihl PS chain this kind of work is what they like. Fun and smooth. That's a locust tree I'm playing with.
When it comes to the quality of the dealer, I myself have had better luck at a hardware store that's sells O P E, vs. a dedicated O P E dealer.
Maybe that's cause the hardware store sells all sorts of stuff other than O P E, and they want you to return to buy that other stuff. At least that's been my experience. We have an Ace Hardware store about 4 miles from where we live. They carry Stihl. They recently moved their O P E dept. to a separate bldg., and added even more Stihl product. They also service what they sell, as they have an actual service dept.
Lol. If your telling me that I'm a Dolmar/makita dealer. Lol. I have my personal 5105H a used 5105, 5100 and 1 new 5105 Dolmar left then the new 5000 makitas in stock. Bahahaha. Don't have a MCV51 though. But I will. Just so people ask. What the heck is that.
I've had very similar experiences. I use an Ace hardware that is a Stihl/Echo dealer. They are often overly friendly and help you out with whatever. They are very honest up front and don't try to upsell you. If anything they tried to downsell me but I like bigger toys lol. My first ever Stihl trimmer came from a sole Stihl dealer and they were less than desirable in every aspect of their service.
For me it's a toss up on where to buy. Ace dealer here is not my favorite as they can't get a part ordered in within a month even if it is in stock. Deere dealer who also sells Stihl is super great with the parts ordering and also stocks a lot of pro stuff vs Ace. They repair equipment at both, but I would never let the ones at Ace touch my equipment. Can't speak for the Deere dealer, but I can only imagine it would be much better. Both places seem to be pretty inflexible on pricing, but I chose to do business with the one who offers superior service, even if the prices are a tiny bit higher.
