Not me.I picked up a used 372 Xp that was full of saw dust inside the crankcase. Doesn’t anyone clean there air filters anymore.? I clean and wash my air filters every evening with ether. I get the oil off the mesh so the next days wood chips aren’t attracted to the air cleaner.
My saws paid my bills and put food on my table.
I run it till it dies. If I dont have the parts to fix nearby I buy a new one.
I have too many machines to service without getting into little things on cheap equip daily. I have let them in my truck bed in the rain for days and God only knows.
I got a call on a $3300 cut and leave in the snow and had to take my truck to the car was and spend $20 melting the snow off all my stuff.
Sometimes it is all in the shop oranized and cleaned and serviced. Other times its laying in a giant snowball with 50 redbull cans and oil jugs while my butt is running inside shivering my butt off.
