Is that PHO or with a bar and chain? I would probably get it PHO and run a Canon or TSB.

You guys talking 372xt or the 372 you can't buy anymore? I would get new 390 before porting my 576at.

Ive been talking about the x torq. I have yet to see a non x torq one still in use in my area. I also have the regular carb 576, no confusers in chainsaws for me.

Trade the 576 for a 372 then get a 395 for the biggins. While your at it pick up a 346 or a 550 for the small stuff. Hey, if your going to have CAD you might as well roll with it.

Straight up! You can see what I've got in my sig. I'm passively looking for a (really good deal on a) 394xp or similar, just to round it out... Maybe also a (smoking deal on a rebuildable) 562xp... Maybe also a... ... ...

At Baileys, a Jonsered 2188 PHO is $979, and they're running a $40 off sale now, so its $939. If you're not in CA, then no tax. Shipping is $10 I think.
The Jred 2188 is the same saw are the 390xp, just different plastic cover on the air filer, and a slightly different angle on the hand bar. I have one, its a beast.

372xp pre x-torq = beast

Ran a 576, they are ok, 390 is better suited for the big stuff. If you try to stretch the limits on a saw you comprimise it's longevity. Unless it's rather occasional than go with what you want. I feel a 390 is rather nimble for what it is. If the difference between the two is on weight than you should put a weight training regiment into your schedule. I think if you put a 28 or 32 on it, the 390 is has the balance card as well as the power on its side....
390XP with a 32" is da bomb! Balance is still good.

i own both and will take an XT everytime. if i was only running short bars i'd probably take an OE though.

I'll bet my 372XPHBB is faster than your 372XTTP.

24" is the longest I plan on running on it. If I need more I'll just buy a 390. I wanted yours but no funds at the moment

how much and the funds must be cleared before this is done since your a cull and all. run away after a loss is your thing. i've ran some strong 372's and my confidence in this race is 100%. you will lose lol
For me it was the weight difference. If you are just bucking the 395 is perfect. Dropping, limbing and bucking I was shot at about 4 tanks of fuel. The 390 gets me to the end of the day. CJ
