My local STIHL dealer: Twin Cities Saw, in Saint Paul, MN, is 4th generation family owned. Two-cycle in their blood.
At least two other, local STIHL dealers that I trust: Minneapolis Saw, and Beisseinger’s Hardware.
Each is an established dealership.
That said, a STIHL rep from corporate mentioned, several years back in a conversation, that chainsaws were a decreasing portion of their sales, and homeowner sales (lawn mowers, string trimmers, etc.) were increasing. So some business decisions are made.
