Husky 395XP

[Demonical]

I've wanted a Husky 395XP for months, finally saw one posted online, $1539 Cdn, called the guy... he says, "You saw listed price? I says ya, "$1500... " He says, "How does $1250 sound?"
I'm like, "Hold that sumbitch and I'll see you in the morning!!"

Awesome, tomorrow is going to be a good day over your way

So how’s that 395?

Apparently it’s pretty good, he hasn’t stopped cutting long enough to get back here and tell us about it

Whoops... sorry fellas, I haven't done a thing with it. Still sitting in my saw storage locker, no bar on it yet.

Plan to hang a 36" bar and milling chain on it. I also have a 372xp and I'm going to run a 33" with cross-cut for all my falling/bucking.

Just had mine out today. Cut up 2 trees about 2 foot diameter and 2 more enormous oaks with 4 foot trunks. Took about 3 hours. Boogered the chain up on the second to last tree. Had to spend some time grinding on it. The 395 is a great saw! I run a 32” usually out a 48”. It pulls it like a train.

Meant to say 32” usually but sometimes a 48”.

Got to use mine today to do some stump work. Love the big girl.

It’sa good stump saw. Sometimes I get frustrated… by the time the 395 is good and warmed up, I’m done cutting.

I doubt your plans to run a 32" on the 372 will stick around for too long after a cut or two, with a 395 sitting at your disposal. I've been getting by with a 28" on the 70cc 372 and now with a 395 w/ 36" bar, she'll be sporting the 28" and the 36" where needed and the 70cc will simply be wearing her 20" solely for medium wood. The 372 is too slow with a 28". It works but you can tell 70cc just doesn't make you happy like you know a 90cc saw will.
Haven't fired up my 395 yet either. She's brand new still, sitting inside the house beside me, just waiting to get into a big one.

Locktite the top cover screws and keep an eye on the nuts at bolts. Other than that, trouble free, hard working saw.

A 395 with a 32” is just about a perfect match. It would be hard to use that bar on a 372 with the 395 hanging around bored out of its mind
