This is what separates the boys from the men IMHO. I say this because like it or not, this is what is and what is to come. As individuals we can pick and choose what we like, but if you run a business and don't accept or adapt the new technology "like it or not" you'll be out of business sooner than later.
Now if I were a dealer and had access to the Common Service Tool, I wouldn't see servicing a saw with AT any different than a regular carb saw, in fact it it's likely a bit easier. An air leak is an air leak, a bad coil is a bad coil. Now not having access to the Common Service Tool changes things a bit, we should be able to hook these thing up to a reader just like we can a car.
Now I still prefer my non AT saws myself, that said, I think this 572 is a real winner. The 572 is first AT saw that runs like a non AT saw, except for the fact you never have to tune the carb.[emoji106] If I were cutting every day, I wouldn't hesitate to run a 572.
