Long nights getting to you already, eh?
I wouldn't want one anyway, but that's just me.....

Its just an AVERAGE saw nothing special, It vibrates a little less than my 242XP but no way would i swap!
What did that 242xp, or it's replacement, cost? What is the price of a 346xp new?
THAT IS WHAT MADE THIS SAW STAND OUT!!!! Muffler modded, it would un with an MS260 easy (not that hard to do). Ported I think it runs better than a 346xp (MY opinion). BUT, notheless, half? the price of either saw?
Best bang for buck, means IT'S CHEAP, and still runs good.
Maybe not that impresive, but put in a decent perspective, it comes together.

A makita dcs5001 is the same price and thats almost a Dolmar 5100
Thats more bang for the buck IMO

That is about failiure to do the prescribed maintenace..........
What maintenance would you prescribe for a muffler that falls off every 30 minutes of cutting time?I tried locktite, lock washers, longer bolts, you name it.
Not trying to argue with you, but I have never had to do maintence to a muffler besides the usual cleaning.
Did you try a simple locking tab? I guess thats just what I call it. A simple sheet metal plate behind the bolt heads thats bent over the flats of the bolt heads.
Like the one on a Jonsereds 49sp. It could be made very easy. I'll post the picture of mine, but keep in mind that I didnt bend the tabs over before the picture. If you need I'll take another photo.
The price picture obviously varies around the world.....
Btw, the DCS5001 is the PS5000, not the PS5100S - there are some differences, that make the 5100S a better saw.
I am sure you know that, but some readers may not know.......
And there you have it! In the states you could catch them onsale for $325, as Dok pointed out.

thats why i used the word ALMOST!
And i dont think we have proved that the 5001 is much behind a 5100 as i cant find a 5001 parts list YET!!!
Im betting there is less differences than you think!
The 5000 share the part list with the 5100 and several others, so it is easy to find out what is different........
