Big Saw/Little Saw recommendations sought

[clinchscavalry]

Thanks to all the advice and expert information found on this forum I ordered both saws today. I decided on a Dolmar 7900 for the big saw and a Stihl 200T for the little one. A tip of the hat to all of you who replied and helped me with this decision.

Now if I can just make some money with these pricey machines

be very careful with that 200t it demands respect I've seen someone get hurt being careless with a tophandle before. Not meant for ground work! GL

I like the 390xp better than the 7900 and the 660. I can't really notice a big difference in the weight between the 390 and 7900 both with 28" bars. I was going to keep the 7900 as my big saw as I wasn't really impressed with the 660 and it vibrated me to death. I run up on a deal on the 390 and bought it and don't regret it at all. I can't wait till it's broke in. I've never ran a 441 but my BIL had one until someone needed it more than him. He said it's like running a husky with stihl colors. I don't really like the 460 as it seems like it weighed just as much as the 390 without as much power. I like the 372xpw as my smaller saw. I ported it a month ago but haven't gotten to run it but for a few minutes. It would pull a 28" with full comp ok before the porting. I hope to get to run it some more in the next few days. The 7900 will pull the 28 with a lot more authority than the 372 did stock.

Did you get one of those 390XP's from the shop here in Knoxville that I posted a few months ago on AS were liquidating there stock at cost? They also had a few 372XP's for $575 before all were gone.
