OP-

Where is your local Stihl dealer located? I checked with mine in Mount Pleasant a few weeks ago and they told me the distributor had enough 260's in stock to keep the 261's away until January. I told him there was already a guy in Ohio with one torn down on his workbench being modded and he looked at me like I had two heads.

Are you with big brother? :confused:

It's a fair question though. I already pay for enough people without having to subsidize people who deal under the table. I disagree with the Constitutionality of the federal income tax, but since it is there give caesar what's his as Christ commanded.

Interestingly 47% of households paid no fed inc tax last year. Draw your own conclusions from that........

Brother,

I put my pants on one leg at a time too.

Damned near every dollar I have made in the last 35 years has been taxed, at least once!

I was just wondering Brad, do you pay taxes on all this work you do for all these people?

As a self employed business owner, I am making no statements or judgements whatsoever, but I fail to see the relevance or point in making this post in this thread. No offense intended.

Ok, let's here the bad on the 261, I had one in me hands today and it was far from " unbalanced" so let's here the bad news! " from a husky poulan guy"

I havent personally ran one. Id love to though. But why mod it, when Brad did his tests it gained some but not alot compared to the 346xp. Its expensive and it doesnt like the porting as much as some of the other saws that the OP could of picked. And probably saved some cash, or his parents could.

I just sit back and read and gain knowledge of what to buy and what not to buy. Along with what to do and what not to do.

wow,congrats!! you must treat your family really well to get a gift like that from them! Good for you guys and Merry Christmas to ya! (btw, I ran the 261 and I love it, think you will too)



Yep. Nuthin' like an $850 50cc saw. Congratulations on such a wise (and obviously well thought out) decision.:yourock:

Poge

wow, way to pee on someone's parade.

I was just wondering Brad, do you pay taxes on all this work you do for all these people?

wow, way to be a douche.

Ok, First it is not my parents, it is my wife/kids that are going to get it for me and for why the 261 over the 346. Biggest reason is close dealer for parts/service and second because it has been throned the "new King" and third "CAUSE I WANT ONE!

Now why have it modded......cause i never have had one ........cause i have the money........cause it sounds cool..........and the biggest cause.........CAUSE I HAVE CAD!

I am not a brand hog but i do support my local dealer.....otherwise Brad would be getting me the saw! I have been on this site for a couple years now and have always looked up to blsnelling's knowledge and he is pretty close for shipping and what he does with my already "Taxed money" is none of my business! You guys are starting to act like OBAMA himself!

I agree what Brad does is his business. I was brought up not to ask certain questions. Like how much do you make. Or what is your religion, but do you pay taxes on a few side bucks has to be on the TOP of the list. If you don't like someones work do not use them. But to ask them what they are going to do with the money you just paid them is NONE of your business. When you give the neighbor kid 20 bucks to shovel snow. Should you ask how it will be spent? I think not!!!
