Well the Homelite 450 just went on fleabay so I may be looking for another saw. No I don't need another one.... but I do frequent this website.
I mentioned in another thread that I found a local Dolmar dealer. The funny thing is that they only have two saws total in the store. One was a 510 and the other a 6400. Nothing else... no filters, chains, bars, saws etc. Just two saws. They said they have six 5100s on order, four of which are already sold and if I wanted one of the others he'd let me have it for 375 out the door with 18 b/c. Montana doesn't have sales tax.
My questions are:
Do they all come stock with .325 pitch? I'd rather have 3/8.
What mount do they use? Small Husky?
For those of you that run a 026/260 and a 5100, Do you really notice that much difference? Are your 026/260 sitting on the shelf at home lonely?
Should I rather contaminate my pool of saws with a Husky and try out that new 346xp?
