It's gonna be a toss up for me between my 041Av and the Dayton 2z463. Both are light enough where a days worth of cutting aren't gonna kill ya and powerful enough to handle 95% of the stuff around here. Both have an amazing sound to. If it weren't for them I could probably sneak by with the 025 but what fun is that.
 
Best Saw

My 372xp is my best saw; it is stock but still cuts like a champ. I have a new 346 that I am really warming up to.:rock:

well,looks like it changed.

Because of my reluctance to take the new toys out to play in the ice and mud, I haven't had a chance to really give any of the new saws (MS361, JREd 2171 or Makita 6401) acquired in the past 2 months as the result of the acquisition afflictions associated with joining site a real workout. So for the moment my first choice is still the 372XP.

The weather is sure to get better sometime, and then my opinion "could change tomorrow".

looks like maybe the 357xp i got a couple months ago.i can't put it down.i had one a couple years ago but sold it.i replaced it with a 361 but that saw sold after a month.just wasn't the saw a 357 is.

now the 372xpw is nipping at the 357s heals since i put the unlimited coil on it.man that thing friggin' rips!
 
Tough question, but I do like my mildly ported 84cc "284F Oleo Mac", it's built like a tank with heaps of grunt :greenchainsaw:

My 066 with out a doubt, its the saw I grab 90% of the time and has never let me down. She's put quite a few trees on the ground and bucked up alot of fire wood, just a blast to run.

My 262 XPG. For it's age it is an incredible saw. Most powerful 60cc saw, superb air injection and much better controls than on today's saws.
Impresses me every time.
 
My 044 is my favorite saw right now. I just bought a 460 that I need to get running, then I'll see which I like better. I did some falling with my 361 I bought for a work saw last week and I have to say I was quite impressed with it as well... its wearing a 25" bar with full skip and it did a great job falling ~20" or so trees. It felt a lot lighter to me than my trusty old 044, but without being able to run the 2 side by side it's hard to tell.
