tool less fuel and oil caps are cool ............
They were first to market and have the best customer support network. For most, that's more important than the piece of equipment. If you can't operate a flippy cap........ Too heavy? :bang:
I don't quite follow you regarding the customer support network - I guess there are some areas that are better covered than others.
Part prices is one of their weak points, if you care - the strongest one is no doubt marketing!
They are the best for three reasons...
1) They have more metal in the same size package as the competition..therefor weigh a little more per cc. ....
I drive by 2 stihl dealers on the way to work there is another not fare from me I like both husky and stihl they both. Have pros and cons the nearest husky dealer is way out of my way and its a big box store that doesn't impress me and they don't carry the pro model saws. My 2 cents
this should get interesting in 3...2...1....
Stihl is regarded as the best because it is the best. Nuff said. Oh and if you can't figure out how to use the flippy's...well then you might wanna consider another hobby...
oh and before we get started...my truck is better then your truck too...
Marketing and service support would be my guess, in answer to the Op's original post.
Service and support is weak around here for Stihl. The dealership in town CLOSES for the winter !(and he's a ####) The other is much more interested in his wood milling business, and has all but quit carrying chainsaws.
My cousin runs a Stihl 036 and that saw will not quit. Zero maintenance, puts it away wet and lets it sit for weeks or months and it still starts and runs . Never cleans his air filter, just knocks the crap off it and runs it.
I run Jonsered and Echo saws. Weed eater and leaf blower are Echo. My riding mower is a Toro. All bought at the same dealership. I have no reason to change. JONSERED BUILDS REAL SAWS. You can't buy 'em at Home Depot.
I have cut with guys running the Stihl chainsaws and have seen, in the past, where air filters clogged when mine needed no attention. I have seen and known a couple/few guys needing coils in their Stihls. I owned a 310 not long ago, cut with it a couple times and sent it down the road because it had a smaller gauge chain. ? Why the small gauge on a chainsaw that size ? And I didn't care to do business with the Stihl guy in town.(he's a #### with ears) It seemed to be a decent little saw.
Hell, the Stihl dealership in town won't sell me a friggin' loop of 3/8 chain cause I run a Jonsered chainsaw !! Yeah, I'll be back thru his door in a hurry...another reason I sold the 310. Did i mention he's a #### ? (he must be able to close his doors in the winter because he's makin' his fortunes sellin' MTD built Simplicity mowers to old widow women in the summer)
Ummm ... punctuation butcher is more like it.
Why dont you go teach an english class,insted of busting everybodys balls for typing errors. Keep your RUDE comments to your self!!!!!!!!!!
Stihl may or may not make the best OPE, but in this area it's the best OPE to own.
