Most of the dealers around here sell Stihl and Husky,but there are a few here and there that sell only one...The ones that sell Stihl swear that Husky is behind the times and is playing catch-up..The ones that sell Husky say the same of Stihl....I'm not sure who to believe,but it seems that every time Husky puts out a new model it's junk for the first few years,then about the time they get the bugs worked out,they change it again.The exception being the 390 which is merely a clone of the 385..I remember when Stihl came out with the 046.I bought the first one my dealer got in his showroom and was very impressed,same with the 650,and no doubt the 650 I had will outrun my 385's...What I thought was ironic was that the 046 is 10cc's smaller than the 385 and it will not outcut the 385...But the 385 won't outcut the 046 either..I think it's funny that people claim Stihl is behind the times.They perform,to me that's all that matters.
