I called Tilton again today to place a saw order and 2156's were on backorder again, and as expected nobody knew anything about 2258's or 2260's or their expected delivery date. Some days I wish I could convince my boss to take on Stihl just so I dont have to deal with Tilton.

I don't like the design of the starter cover - but no biggie.....

So you're going to get one of those too, right?

No, as I like the handlebar angle of the 560xp better, and dislike the design of the "spin start" starter cover on the newer Jonsereds - looks a bit "gay" to me.....:msp_w00t:
Did Niko just use the word 'gay' in a sentence....???

What's odd with that?
Eh. Nothing really. I found to be rather entertaining actually.

Well, that design just is a disaster, and totally destroying the otherwise excellent looks of the saw - sort of "pimped" in the negative meaning....

After spending some time with the 562xp, it's a keeper. I no longer want the Red version. :msp_smile:
Niko I almost can't believe you didn't comment on the comment I made about the chips.
He decided your comment was gay and went outside to wring the necks of a few wild turkeys.

So is tilton equipment known for sucking because there is a new Jred dealer near me and I was actually going to check out the comparable Jred saws to the Huskies I was looking at. I called the guy and he said his stock was going to be in in a week. I figured OK I can wait a week so I called again about a week and a half later and the guy says "nope, not in yet, not for another 2 weeks or so". Suffice it to say I bought a Husky as this was my first experience with a Jred dealer. I wonder how many customers they lose this way?

Not wild turkeys, as far as I know - but they usually turn up a bit before Christmas, frozen......
Croutons are common in dried "fast soup" etc..
2260's are out there now? I cannae find em on any of the foreign forums I visit. Anyone got any more info?

Looks like USA release of these new models is not any time soon- Tilton have the 2156 and 2159 back in stock and shipping to dealers as of a couple weeks ago...
