I'd give anything to see that little old lady come in to your shop tomorrow and with one hand she's carrying an 088 with a 5-foot bar on it.

Thats what I'm thinking...
However I did send a felllow home with a brand new Husky 340 w/ 16" bar last week, and I'm sure he was nearly eighty. I'm also certain that he would be able to operate it safely based on his physical condition.
Of course, in this part of the world people are buying chainsaws to tidy up a little brush, not harvest an entire forest!
Age is attitude!
