Hi I'm new to site. Every time I have goggled a question they was a link to this site with some interesting discussion. It took awhile but the light bulb finally went on and thought I would join this site.
I am looking to buy a new Stihl. I'm a homeowner who burns 11-12 cords of wood a year. I don't cut wood for a living but I m willing to buy a pro model if it is worth it. I bought a used 029 w/16" bar last year and love the saw. I would like to buy a saw w/20" bar,power,and good on fuel consumption. Hate to admit it but I'm getting to an age where wood cutting and carrying can wear me out,so anti-vibration and weight is something I'm also considering.
I really wish you could go to a dealer and they would have some logs and demo saws you could try. I'm hoping some of you have different size saws and would like to give your opinion.
Thanks
