I am interested in complementing my Husqvarns 55 Rancher with a more powerful saw for my personal firewood needs. I cut mainly locus, maple, and oak and have been very pleased with the performance of my Husqvarna saw. After exploring many posts, I see the 372xp deserves my consideration.
I do have a local dealer who carries the Efco (old Olympic) line. I found the below internet sale for a new 181 (80cc) saw w/ 5 warrenty.
Would the cost savings of the 181 ($475) be worth the reputation of the 372xp saw? Thoughts?
Thanks
