Hey all, After doing some looking, Looking to pick up a used Stihl MS 362 20”. To replace an 02 series as my all round go to saw. What should I pay for a lightly or somewhat used saw? I know they're over 800 new. My other half would croak! Thanks!
 
Thanks. I've seen opinions going both ways. Lower end grunt on the 361. Better overall power on the 362 and more reliable,/serviceable.

I've got an 021 that has served well, but time to part with it possibly.
 
Get a new one that way you are not worried about someone just dumping one that has been gutted or repaired on the cheap with china parts.
A lot of china lovers on this site now, be very careful in your hunt and purchase.
 
361 definitely does NOT have more lower end grunt than a 362, it's actually the other way around. I'm talking series 2 362 though.....
