Yeah, warranties on saws seem to be inversely proportional to quality - pro stihls 3 months, homeowner 1 year, pro Husky 6 months?, homeowner - 2 years??
I have a 550xp on order, when I called back apparently some other pros/outfit was putting in an order for several 550s and I was added on to that one - barring a last minute change of mind - or some other problem it looks like that is what I am getting, despite it costing $50-75 more than a 346xp at this time. I simply like the new features and would not be satisfied without them. Am I being realistic about the value of the new features or if I will regret the new 'unproven' technology seems to be the question..
