Alright, first of all, anyone reading this post, PLEASE don't start a Stihl vs Husqvarna war with me!!!
In my opinion, they are called Stihl for a reason, "Stihl broke ain't it?" :
I personally have a few Huskys. I think that they are just a little superior to a Stihl, mainly because of their easy staring. I have a 288XP that is box stock, and it will start 3rd pull every time when cold, and 1st or 2nd when it has been used. Also have a 350 and it is an AWESOME little saw.
My 288XP is a 1999, and the 350 is an 07 I think. A buddy has 6 372XP saws, and they will chew circles around my 288, they are just MONSTERS!!
Just my thoughts, I would at least look into a Husqvarna if I were you... Also, who do you have for a local dealer? That might make up your mind...
We have 4 Husky dealers that are always boomin, and the local JD dealer has Stihl, and they do alright.
Come to think of it, another friend as an Echo 265? (not sure on the numbers?) He really likes it. It came with a 26 on it out of the box, and he said that was pushing it for power.
Just for your info, my 288XP has a 28 and a 32 inch bar for it, the 350 has a 22, buddys 372's have any thing from a 24 to a 42, and they will cut 42 inches of wood!!! :) Bryce
