It seems Stihl finally made a saw that performs BETTER than the 460 and closer to the 660.

Good saw. It can keep up, so if the Bozo running your dealership runs out of 660s and you have to have a saw yesterday, go ahead and grab one.

I will respectfully have to disagree with anyone who brings up the 064. The 650 hurts it.

I'd definately grab it before grabbing an 064.

Good transaction. Buy from Huskynut with confidence.

I personally just can't see using a saw that weighs the same with less power. I would find away to get a 660.

Good point, but if you have a full day of cutting ahead of you and you can move it to the back up saw when the others are back. It's an option.


Most of the felling is done with a Bell, so it is just for limbing.:dizzy:

Of course an orange one...I'd take a 395 over my 066 anyday...

Not me I'd never run an orange saw.;)

People does noone here own a 650 Stihl?
