Its still bad ass and if it gets the job done then thats even better. I always wanted one of those but I think I'm gonna go with a Suzuki Samurai that way I can drive it on the roads.

Say, you don't like Stihl, do you?
I have a weird question.... I noticed you have 4 trimmers and no stick edger, is edging not big where you live?

You dont need a stick edger to get a nice edge, once I get my edge established at the beginning of every year, I dont use my walk behind edger again the rest of the year, I do it all with the trimmer, If I dont get aggravated that my edge isnt up to par..

I agree, a edger is not needed to maintain an edge. I use my trimmer to maintain edges on everyone of my yards year round. It is soo much easier to use when you are good at it.

Haha both brands have good stuff. I think stihl blowers are awsome for owner/operators but if you have crews that abuse machines there is no better blower than the Echo PB-410 and the PB-755. I use Stihl BR-600's right now but I have one of each of the blowers listed above also. Stihl really lost my interest in their trimmers when they started all this 4mix crap. I love my Echo SRM-265T's. There is nothing like a real two stroke.

$600 for both. i used them a few times last year and that was, they are a year old. i was told that was fair

yea I know they are fun...we are thinking about going to the DUNES this year and i might take that...take of the plow and doors...ill be putting around in that while all of my buddies are in there badass atvs that go 90...lol well see...
and well yea around here no one really uses a edger so never really thought about it...I have a few times and was thinking of getting one just to have it for times needed...
Echo is not a brand sold around where I am from..so if anything goes wrong or if you need a part it would be a pain in the butt to get something..we have a stihl dealer in my town so they usually give me free oil, line and alot of little work for free since i buy a lot from them...
and yea I dont know about the whole cleaning of them...I just make sure everything is winterized good and cleaned out..
