    5W20

    Not sure what year your truck is but my 2010 Ram 2500 5w20 was the factory fill but it stated in the owners manual that when hauling or towing heavy to use 5W30 oil. Try running 5w30. FWIW, my new Power Wagon has a 6.4 Hemi and the oil is 0w40.

    Wife spoiled me... What did you get?

    Between the wife, kids, in-laws, and father. I got a few pairs of jeans, binoculars, iPod, box of fat wood, North Face jacket and two TSC gift cards. From myself I ordered a 24" bar and two chains form my 372xp.

    no "Jonsered" on bars...!?

    I wanted to get a 24" bar for my 372xp recently. I was in Tractor Supply and the had a Jonsered 24" bar with chain for the big JRed they sell (70cc) and it had no writing on the bar. I ended up ordering a 24" Oregon Powermatch and 2 chains from Bailey's for less money than the Tractor Supply bar...

    Bed weight without using alot of space

    I've plowed a fair amount of snow in my day. Never needed that much weight for traction. I'm not saying it's not effective, just overkill imho.

    MY FIRST SAW! WHAT WAS YOURS?

    My first saw was a Husqvarna 45 that I got used around 1999. Saw was from the early to mid nineties. Sold it to my friend a couple of years ago and he still uses it. The saw with the most sentimental value to me is my dad's Homelite SuperXL. It currently sits on the shelf next to my 346xp and 372xp.

    Don't hate me for what I'm about to do.

    You can't go wrong with the US General box. I bought a big Craftsman box about 5 years ago to replace my smaller Craftsman rollaway. At the time I knew nothing about US General boxes and AFAIWC Harbor Freight was junk. Knowing what I know now I would certainly buy the US General over Craftsman.

    the man caves (or sheds)

    Thanks. It's in for winterization. It's 18 years old and runs like new. I used to handle 20+ lawns as weeks a side job but now it's only used for a few a week. I purchased a JD X500 to use on my own property. I much prefer riding than walking.

    the man caves (or sheds)

    Here's my garage. I purchased the house a year and a half ago. I moved in and the first thing I did was paint the garage and replace the 3 incandescent bulbs with 6' fluorescent lights. I also added the some shelving. The workbench came from my old house. I built it myself and had the steel...

    Dealer put a new carb on the saw under warranty. Saw runs like it should now.

    Stihl Kombi KM56 or KM90?

    I had the KM85 and it would not pull the pole saw very well. Think frustrated all the time. After 10 plus years of use the KM85 needed a carb rebuild and it also needed a coil. I decided I wanted a new powerhead vs. fixing the old one so I bought a KM130R. No more frustration using the pole saw...

    Bruno who and the Red Hot what??

    Bruno Mars is the "new thing" for the younger generation. Media reports have the half time show as a success. Red Hot Chili Peppers have been around for over 25 years. Your lucky they only took their shirts off. In they're heyday they were known for hitting the stage with only an athletic sock...

    372xp Stalling

    Picked up the saw yesterday from the dealer. As I said earlier they replaced the carburetor under warranty. I asked the guy I picked it up from if they knew what was the carb issue but he did not know. My guess is since the saw is new with maybe 10 tanks of fuel through it (always used canned...

    Wood Hauler Pics

    Nice score on a genuine wood hauler Homelite410. Mines a little fancy but it serves as my daily driver as well. I still work it though and the bed and tailgate have the dent's to prove it. My truck will be 4 years old in March so I'm not as anal about a scratch or dent like I was when it was...

    Kohler vs. Onan vs. Generac????

    I moved into a new to me house this past summer and installed a whole house generator that runs off propane. I looked at Kohler and Generac and ended up with a 20kw Kohler. The installer is a big time generator dealer for both residential and commercial. He services all brands and in his opinion...

    372xp Stalling

    The saw is at the dealer getting a new carburetor. Should be covered under warranty.

    372xp Stalling

    Update: Got off of the phone with the dealer and they had to order a new carburetor from Husqvarna. Should have the saw back next week and I'll give another update.

    372xp Stalling

    Well I hate to admit defeat but I dropped the saw off today. It's under warranty still and I have no clue why it's doing this. Once I get an get it fixed I'll let you guy's know the verdict. FWIW, theres a little shop in Norton Mass on Rt 123 which will remain nameless that sell Husqvarna, and...
