What buyers say

Bad Boy Maverick was in stock and ready — 5★

Half the dealers I called had a six-week wait on a Maverick HD. Franklin had one on the floor, went over the deck and warranty with me, and I mowed my place that same weekend.

STIHL saw and they set the chain for me — 5★

Picked up an MS 271 and the counter guy tensioned the chain, topped the bar oil, and made sure it started before I left the lot. Small thing that says a lot.

Good Toro, short wait on one part — 4★

The zero-turn was priced fair and runs great. Had to wait a few days for a spindle they ordered in, but they called the minute it landed. No complaints for a small-town shop.

Rented a plate compactor without a hassle — 5★

Needed a compactor for a weekend paver job. Simple rental paperwork, clean machine, fair day rate, and they walked me through starting it. Will rent from them again.

They actually service what they sell — 5★

Bought my Bad Boy here two years back and brought it in for a blade and belt job. In and out same day and it cuts like new. Nice not having to haul it to Jacksonville.

Straight answers on the right size mower — 5★

I almost bought too much mower. The salesman asked about my acreage and steered me to a smaller Toro that fit my yard and my budget. Honest advice.

Knowledgeable on STIHL trimmers — 4★

Compared three trimmer models and the staff knew the specs cold. Only reason for four stars is the showroom is small, but the help was first rate.

Loaded it in my truck and strapped it down — 5★

Bought a pressure washer and a trimmer, and they carried both out and helped me strap them in. That kind of service is why I skip the big box stores.
