Were you running the Home Depot chain, I think they do a fine job.
You might be on to something. Listed at 64cc, 13.9# complete with 20"bar and $68 a day and about 4 miles away. And they are Orange now!
Dirts cheap but transportation is pricey! Dirt is only 25% of the total bill. I got 52k pounds of septic stone 6a delivered for 550$ 2 loads. 150$ was the stone 400$ was fkr delivery
Odd, they sell it by the pound there?
It was by the yard x amount per yard. Dirt sand gravel aggregate all different weight by the yard. They scale you to know how many yards your carrying combined weight of 2 trucks was alil over 52k pounds
From what I have heard from the owners of these saws they are the one of the best saws made of their class these days, built well and simple to work on if need be.
I’ve got a 261 stihl. I’d recommend unless you are cutting up huge tree trunks or something will pull 20” just fine and it’s got the same amount of power as a cs590, with a lot less weight. I got it as a brush popper limbsaw mainly. Only disadvantage is it will only run 20” max on narrow mounts and uses .325 chain not 3/8”. But it is fast…fast. I used to have a 455 and this thing eats it’s lunch in all categories.
Most newer saws benefit from a muffler mod, and the 590 is no exception to that.
That's it, they don't handle well at all.

The video above is with the new husky c85 chain in hard ash, very smooth, just as square is.
I hope you have a saw that works at the end of the warranty. Take a look @ the exhaust outlet on the muffler, and tell me its not a recipe for complete failure. Its like 1\20th of the size of the exhaust port. Never could get what people get so thrilled about them for other than price. Might as well gamble on a holzfforma or some China saw, imo. They aren't a bad saw if you gut the muffler and turn up the fuel. That being said a 562 can kick its butt 11 times out of 10.
