    If you have a local saw nut or dealer that has a Dolmar 7900, give it a spin. You can't go wrong with the Stihl 440 or 460, check out the 441 also. If I were looking at a husky, the 375 wood be my choice. I have not ran a 7900 or 375 but the guys here love 'em. I have a few hours behind a Jred 2171(like the 372) and it was a nice saw but then traded it for a even nicer 044.

    Ohhh, stop it. There was one on here a few months ago.

    You've just got to check in more often.












    Okay, I have to admit... I did read this thread; so the allure for 70cc saw threads is still there.

    Hey 2000, I was wondering when you were going to pop up in this thread.

    You should buy a 757. That's the best. Oh I have one I'm going to sell with a 24" bar. Man did you hit the jackpot.

    john deere 66sv clutch cover (it's a yellow echo 610evl).
    18" k041 poulan or k095 small mount husky bar 3/8 0.50
