    Finally got my Husqvarna 565

    Wanted to say thank you to Bob @spike60 none of my local shops carry the 565 and the ones who would order it were ridiculous on the price. Thankfully Bob was nice enough to ship one cross country for me. If anyone needs anything Husqvarna, give Bob a call, he is the best!
