If you're looking at either one, do the 660. The 650 is a decent saw, but not worth the savings IMO.
I run a 36" on my 660.

I really can't grasp Stihl's concept of the 650. My dealer has sold 1 in two years, he has sold over 50 660's.
The 650 will pull a 36 OK with skip,,,,,
The 660 will pull it with,,, Authority
for stumpin the extra grunt will make the 660 a wise choice,,
My baby bro has a tree removal stump grinding service and has a 460 and a 650,,,,and when ever he gets a bad one he is always conning me out of my old 066 mag,,, he had an old virgin growth oak stump this weeknd that was almost 90" the cut off stump was so big he couldn't pick it up with his skidsteer had to choke it and drag it out of the peoples front yard to the grapple!!!! I took pics but I trashed them in the camera somehow :monkey: :monkey: :monkey:
Yep the techno Dunce is at it again!!!!
You making fun of my 650 Willis

I would not buy the 650 for previously stated reasons
I run a 28" on my 660 as I find that bar length means I don't have to bend over to cut to the ground; Im 6 foot. I also like 28" bar as it is easier then shorter bars to bend the bar and snap the chain back on when the chain skips off; which seems to happen more with shihl then husky. I have a 36 inch when i need it. I have used 42 inch skip on 066 before and found I had to be carefull not to bog it.

In the 1000s of hours i have ran saws don't think I have thrown chains maybe 6 or 7 times usually either hit something or just plain operator error. Don't really buy there is a trend.
