Zoomed with my BIL and family last weekend, he is the District Ranger in the UP. Was also a Smoke Jumper in his early days. Yes the Forest Service did stop buying Stihl's due to the gas tank issue. They bought Husky's. Stihl has now fixed that issue and they are buying them again. Asked him what saw he has at home, Poulon... I bought an Echo, both of us agreed, price was an issue.
