"Platinum", Thall. Not "Grey". Sounds much better, doesn't it? Too bad it doesn't look any better. :cheers:

I want orange man, I don't want a cover that matches my hair, oppppps, I mean uhhhhhhhhhhhhh, uhhhhhhhhhhh my, oh hell nevermind,LOL
 
I try to hold it with all my might,
I still have to pee three times a night,

I’m not sure, but I’ve been told,
It’s just a sign I’m getting old,

You see Demi starring in Ghost?
Woops! I’m off-topic with this post,

I’ll bring my post back into line,
The 026 stood the test of time,

It still works and that does matter,
And it ain’t as old as my bladder,

The bladder won’t last the entire night,
But, I need the exercise, so it’s alright.

LOLOLOL

And as heres the rest of the story.

As the years went by Demi and Tom aged gracefully until that faithfull day. Demi stood in front of the mirror naked and looked at what age had done. She said oh Tom I'm in dire need of a compliment. My hair has turned white, my boobs now sag. My flat tummy now has wrinkles of fat. Oh please Tom she said, I need a compliment. Tom being his jolly ole self said well ok, your eyesight is prefect still baby. And that my freinds was how the fight got started, till next time, this is Paul Harvey signing off,hehe

Good morning America, Paul Harvey here with the rest of the story. The Demi & Tom saga contiunes today into their golden years. Yes the was a brawl out on RT95 this morning. Seems Demi and Tom were out for a evening ride in this zero weather when Demi spotted a little skunk on side of the road rolled up in a ball. She hollered oh my, stop the car. Tom did and Demi got out to see if the little critter was still alive. To her delight it was. She picked it up and got back into the car and said oh Tom its still alive but its freezing. Tom being his jolly self said well honey just put him between your legs, I know its warm there he said with a evil grin. Demi said but what about the smell, its a skunk you know. Tom said awww hell just put your fingers over its nose and it won't smell a thing. And that my friends was how the fight got started..

I voted for the 260 because it's a timeless classic. I haven't run the other two saws, so it probably doesn't mean much. The thing is, I wouldn't care if the other saws just smoked the 260 in every way. Kinda like, would you rather have a classic muscle car or the new version that is better in every way? I'd take the classic.

Flawless logic:greenchainsaw: :agree2:
 
By the looks of this poll the 026/260 can still hold its own with the newer saws!!! I can see why it has stood the test of time!!!

It would be interesting to fast forward 20 years and see how many of which model are still in use;)

Just look at eBay and see all of the Stihls that are still making it happen.

Husky, Dolmar, not so much.

A glimpse of the future by looking into the past:cheers:
