i'm just dropping in to let you guys know that you guys don't even know how sweet this new saw is the rear handle pic IMO is likely not legit as the one i've ran a few times now was stripped of all stickers including the serial tag and looked to have never had them. probably some kind of protection thing in case one of their testers got sloppy and accidently let the public see it. as a matter of fact i know exactly where the prototype i ran is stashed right now. it's up on a hill on the tree line of a half havested cut block stashed under and old stump in the pissing rain. it's also got nearly 2 years of regular production falling on it now and still runs great. the rep testing husqvarna products has turned out to be a real good friend of mine. he told me yesterday that testing is almost done and apparently alot of guys are already done with their testing. i asked him if he had to kill the saw and he said it's based on hours so if it's still alive after the hours mark it'll still be a runner. he also has a 372XT with all the decals stripped and he told me it was a prototype as well.
