why are cops giving him hell?
seems fishy
Maybe the saw and other stuff are "hot"? :Eye::Eye:

...I would agree that the 362 is a lighter faster saw, but it's not really greatly worth the price increase (in my opinion) Just because a saw isn't classified as "pro" by Stihl doesn't mean it doesn't have more than enough power to get the firewood cutter through a season....
The next comparable saw would obviously be the 441, which doesn't weigh much more than the 391 and has a ton more power. Can't argue that is a much more powerful saw and more effective. But there again, you're paying a few hundred more bucks for that power.
All I'm saying is that they (391 and 362) are almost the same saw...
Encore I agree, but for the money they're better options out there, the Dolmar 6400 mostly. The 6400 is close in power to the 441, 372 and is much cheaper.
i think the number one thing you are missing in all of this, its not just the .2 hp and the lb less of weight, its the overall construction and quality of components used that makes a saw a "pro model". you are getting WAY more than +.2 hp and -1 lb when buying a 362 over a 391, they are nowhere near "the same saw". yes the 391 has 'more than enough power to get a firewood cutter through A season".. but the pro grade saws will get you through way more seasons , unless you straight gas it like rygard
Those chains are stretching cause they are getting hot. Either Dull or no oil, but most likely dull with the new saw, especially if cutting Juniper. However, check out the oiler on that saw.
The temp of the saw has no bearing with cops.
I would love to be able to send you a piece of the Juniper/Cedar that I cut. It's really dirty wood. I sharpen my chain at least 5 times per cord and guide bars only last about ten cords. If I am cutting at dawn or dusk you can see the sparks fly off the chain its pretty crazy stuff.27 chains will only last you a year!? :shock:
between that and the comment about them stretching so much you have to have links removed.. i think this is in order:
