True. True. However, where I shop, the Tussy Light & Tough is only $10 more than the Husqy HT388.

How much does the 385xp normally sell for? I hear great things about it.
Also, the 064 was a legendary saw.

Are replacement parts easily acquired? Any dealers local, or will you be waiting for parts? That's for a used saw run by who knows who, that 390 is new and can also be ported. Not every firewood cutter needs a ported saw.Home Depot rental 6400 $320

Agree. Local dealers available? Parts readily available? Needs larger p/c to equal 390. Really believe he should just buy and run what he wants.FWIW, seems pretty hard to wear these Makitas out, they are one tough saw. Also, as I understand these saws get refurbished by HD before being sold if they need it. It seems like everything should be working against these saws....ex-rental saw from a big box stores. However, we constantly here people having good luck with these saws after purchase.
