Why Do Stihl Saws Cost SO Much More?

Here's the cap twister that I made in my shop and use on the older style Stihl caps that get ripped apart by screwdrivers:
It works and I use one almost every day for every Stihl I own that does not use a flippy.

So whose #3? Assuming husqvarna is #2.
good question , I would bet on a box store saw
Probably Echo is #3 (Kioritz Corp.). Then there is Dolmar, makers of Makita saws and their own brand. Of course, the Wally World Wild Things sell rather well before they are thrown away.
Is someone spreading those rumors AGAIN?
I have heard rumors in dark Alleys, that there Are OTHER Brands of Chainsaws besides Husqvarna, and Stihl, but surely those Rumors are just Hersey and Blasphemy
And then to add that Bovine Excrement that Husqvarna is Number 2?
Has the earth shifted on it axis?

I'll run any saw with a sharp chain.
never ran a huskie any length of time they feel loosey goosey to me kind a like a 441 Stihl
I haven't run many Stihls, but I have never felt that any of my Huskys have felt "Loosey Goosey", and counting the Wife's saw, I've got 6 Huskys. I am trying to figure out just how a saw would feel "Loosey Goosey", maybe I will have to find a Stihl 441, and see just what a "Loosey Goosey" saw feels like
I bought my 266XP New in 91', and it made a Husky believer out of me, Never parting with that saw, My 3120XP is simply a BEAST, that is a Ton of Fun Bucking Big wood with, the 353 is a Handy saw to have around, didn't realize how much I "Needed" a 50cc saw until I had one
, the 23 Compact Top Handle is another that gets more use than I would have expected when I bought it. The 460 Rancher, I bought used, it Ain't Pretty, but runs Good, where I live Trees in the road is a fairly common occurrence so it is my "Truck Saw", I'm NOT leaving my 266 in the truck 24/7.My Huskys have always been Great saws for Me, so I have stuck with them, and never regretted it, YMMV

the stihl worship in this forum is over the top....

Where would you get that idea?[emoji1]
What's the alternative? Husky worship over the top? There's really only 2 choices.
there more choices out there,,you just aint been looking....
I have to agree with that statement. Dolmar and Echo are available. I have two or three of each and they all run very well.
Dayum, more of them Rumors
Hersey and Blasphemy I tell ya

Either way, used Stihl stuff sells a lot better!!! Hard to argue that point!!!
That could be, because Husky owners are Happy with their saws and DON'T SELL them
Is it they sell Better, or there is just MORE of them FOR SALE?
Not likely to see any of My Huskys on the Tradin' Post any time soon.

I look a lot but getting your hands on a dolmar is hard. You can buy a husky or stihl easily. It's sort of like asking which brand of truck is better you will get mostly 1 of 3 answers.
