    What is on your CAD wish list? I am wanting a Dolmar 421, but don't need one in the slightest lol. Maybe I need to send this Dolmar top handle down the road and buy one..

    Post up what you are wanting/ need.

    Right where I want to be.
    Something lighter and more powerful so it doesn't need to be in my hands as long.
    Faster cuts means getting done quicker, or does it just mean I'll end up cutting more wood?:saw:

    That Dolmar HAS to be good. And for 325? I don't see how a person could go wrong buying one.

    You don't read anything bad about them. And that price is right.

    Dealer support isn't spectacular around here, but I found out my favorite small engine shop sells them at their other store, and can get me any parts I need. The place that I bought my first Dolmar from was the 'other' store for another dealer, and has since closed :mad:

    Since my two saw setup is currently a 6401 and a 7900 :dex:, I may just get rid of the blue one and try a 421. I've been eyeballin' that 241 C-M, but it's a little out of reach, dollarwise.

    No saws on my wish list. Now a newer plow truck is on my wish list before winter though.

    Hmm... I'd say a bunch of Stihl pro carcasses that will get me through the winter. I'm feelin' an 026 build comin soon. Maybe another 036? I gotta try out those Hutzl plastics I just won on Ebay.
    As for running saws, nothing out there right now that I need.

    Would like to find a NOS 2101! Failing that a NOS Dolmar 5100S (screamer). I would settle for a Pioneer P-65!
