My local Jonsered dealer told me that Husqvarna and Johnsered would be splitting sometime next year. Has anyone else heard this rumor?
That seems highly unlikely. Jred has no manufacturing facilities, no designs of their own, and brand recognition that is marginal at best in most areas. Husky may well rid itself of Jred soon, but unfortunately it will likely be by discontinuing the brand.
Yes, it is a long time since Jred actually have made any saws, Husky has been making all the better ones since around 1990.
Tiltons going to start selling Total Super Saws? Probably be Efcos or better yet, Total Super Saws powered by Blue Streak Power Horse EarthQuakes.
It is a house brand, like Craftsman, if Tiltons and Husqvarna stop playing nice together then it goes away. Husqvarna probably would not even notice the missing sales on power heads if they picked another large vendor.

dont know if you are joking or not but he did say something about tilton having something to do with jonsered and not happy with husqvarna, and tilton was cutting ties with husqvarna. like i said he may not have a clue what he is talking about.
you cant buy new Jred's in Australia any more ...might be able to find a old shelf model that hasn't sold yet ??? you can still get parts for a Jred from a husky dealer at the moment apparently ....just no dealers are selling Jreds anymore In OZ[/QUOTE
Interesting, seems as though they are making some changes. I sure hope jonny red isnt dropped all together.

Wonder how the word Jonsereds sounds in Chinese.
