I've never used a Stihl...but I won't buy any other chainsaw.

I do have a DR Trimmer/Mower. It's a string trimmer on steroids, for sure. It's on wheels but can go almost anywhere a handheld can. I've had mine for almost 15 years. The damn thing finally wouldn't start last summer. I started tinkering with it and decided the gas smelled funny...a lot like diesel fuel.

After I drained the tank and put new GAS in it, it fired right up and ran like a scalded cat again. It'll cut down saplings up to about 2" thick with the right line, too.

After the diesel incident just on a hunch I checked a few other pieces of equipment. Pressure washer...diesel. Generator...diesel. What a PITA to fix.

I hate it when my wife does stupid shit. (Well...that might actually have been me)
