I think it's time for a new 'big' saw. Recommendations?

[QUOTE="VW Splitter, post: 6379505, member: 77495"] I have a 2005 model Husky 385 that usually wears a 30" bar. Back then they were rated for a 42", bar and it will pull it, I have tried it once when my 395 layed down on me. Why is it the newer saws are not rated for as long a bar as a older saw with the same displacement? You might want to get a older saw. Might be cheaper and stronger running. By the way my ported 372 will run circles around the 385. I have never tried the 42" on it but it will sure spin a 36". It usually wears a 24". [/QUOTE]
