After using this Stihl I am getting one
Depending on use, a properly maintained Stihl will last a very long time. I was homesteading on a place that had an 026 used at least once a week, and showed it. Not sure exactly how old it was, but 15 years was not inconceivable. I did my part to tear down and clean the saw, and it looked like those before me had done the same, as it ran like a top. It was on it's second carburetor (this was in 2010), everything else was original (except the obvious consumables like air filter, plug, bar and chain). They really are great saws, in my experience.
