Now i know what my username represents but in no means am i loyal to only stihl. I have used many brand saws over the years and all of them done the job. probably the best saw i ever owned was an old craftsman 3.7.I do have other brand names in the stable with the stihls and they get used. I will say i like the speed of the new saws over the old ones,but if thats all i had it would be fine. I know some of you guys are brand specific. So what makes ya like the brand you have over others. I don't have cad bad enough to go buy them,but would like to have a copy of each brand name. and please i don't want to start a war.
