372xp Vs 359

[Former Saw Builder]

More so than a 361?

No saw is more over rated then the MS361

I pulled the lever on ebay this morning and bought a new 372xp with a 20" bar. I got a really good deal on it because I had a 10 percent off ebay coupon. I made the decision to buy it because there are more dealers in my area that carry Husqvarnas.

Now to buy a 24" bar and chain.

I'll always wonder what the 7900 would be like but if I had bought it I would always wonder what the 372xp would be like. I don't think I could have gone wrong with either saw.

Thanks for all of the input.

Ah hell, just get both, but add a 440, 441, or 460 also!

I would like to but I've got these two small (well maybe not so small) problems. They are money and my wife.

I did think about the 440.

Well if you are ever anywhere near Greensboro NC let me know Ill let you run my 7900 and my 395. I have not run a 372 but I figure if they have that much hype they cant be too bad. I don see how a 7900 could be slow unless the chain was dull or the saw was too rich. Oh and the 359 likes about 13,500 a lot better than 12,500.

You are right, as usual......

The 359 is about as close as you come to a dud for a 59cc saw, and the 372xp is a pretty good 71cc saw, probably the best ever - much larger difference that the cc difference indicate.

Hmm 359's are duds?

Thanks for the offer but I bought the 372 awhile back. I've only cut one 18" locust down and I hit a wire on the very first cut. I only had one chain so I filed some of it out and it still cut good but I don't think I saw the full potential of it though.

I don't think I would have went wrong with the 372 or the 7900.
