I only no what I know
How many of you guys have to go to these John Deere/Stihl dealers.
First off I am not a Stihl lover or hater, I own a couple of their products and they do me well.
I have two of these dealers near me and they are owned by the same people so they share inventory. Neither are very large dealerships IMO. One has a fairly large inventory of Stihl equipment while the 441 and 362 are on hand the rest of the inventory is more land owner and homeowner models. The other only has maybe half a dozen saws on the shelf.
Also went into one in southern Minnesota recently, a rather large dealership for John Deere, but what I would call an absolute joke as far as Stihl is concerned. They had only three saws on the shelf, a 170, 291, and a 391. They had all kinds of blowers and hedge trimmers and weed trimmers and such but only three saws.
I am in no way bashing on Stihl, god forbid, just wondering what your experience with these dealers has been.
