So the used XLT I bought, the battery box was a little loose. Wasnt worried, Sweet Home is only an hour away. Took it in today, no problem, just needs rerivetad, no charge. Also checked it out, no charge. Pretty soon they brought it back, all tight. By the way, coil had issues, they put a new coil on, no charge. What a change in performance. What an awesome company.

They have a museum also that is eye opening. I agree, not many companies left that are American made and stand that firm on there product. Later Clyde

WOW ...
That,s the way to keep your customer base.
My XLT is used as well tho i've owned it for 6+ years & it could use a little Battery Compartment Work , Heck that,s how I got the machine .
The former Owner My Friend Thought It Did not work anymore , it would cut off if you shook the machine or bumped the box, the issue was the battery pack was not getting a good connection (down inside the machine) So I just rigged something to push the battery pack to one side & stuck some of those stick on Furniture -To floor Pads to the battery compartment latch & that, done the trick for a few years now. Not bad for a Free MD that's found me $1000,s in Finds.

But It would be nice to live near Sweet Home OR. So I don't have to go through all the hassle.
And a Free New Loop ..You Can NOT beat that.
Thanks For The Info,
Davers

Sounds like a good experience, great they stand behind their products. Like my 30 something year old fisher, fisher will still service it.
Gotta love american made pride.

So Fisher Will still service their older machines?

I have a 1266-X that needs battery Compartment work , it can be rigged to work ,But it's A REAL PAIN.
Ill have to check into this.
Thanks
