I have been saving for a new saw and was wondering if the $100 or so price difference is really worth the money for the 562. If I get the 365 I can port and polish it and do the muffler myself pretty easy, but the 562xp im not so sure of. It looks like a really nice saw and feels pretty light. It is a much more complicated saw, so im not sure what to think about it. Also im not sure how much harder it will be to mode since its so new. Anyway just wondering what everyone thing . thanks in advance

I my humble opinion...if your a young pro..no. The 365 is a better deal. If your an old fart, the anti vib on the 562 might sway things....Not certain which wll use less fuel and if the difference is significant enough to factor in. Just an opinion. For me if i had to pick from a 555 and 365...because I'm old and things hurt, I'd pick the 555. (Plus I have a pile of back up saws should a young model need debugging) Might pick the 562 as well....not certain yet. I think that 365 is a sleeper.
(BTW, I haven't seen any offering from any company that can match that 365 in a pure price performance comparison...period, better grab them before Husqvarna figures out there is a price mis match)
