    Thats tempting, but they wouldnt budge on price or bar length when they first had them on the shelf last year.

    I finally bought a Stihl light bar, 25 inch, a friend found an area dealer whose price was $125, seems a good price. Might buy a 20 inch, too.

    I’ll be putting one on mine for sure. You need it for the full light saw experience.
    Radar is showing rain for Connecticut, so it’s perfect weather for saw buying. :makeitrain"

    I’m guessing 10-12 weeks on the 400, but no confirmation yet. Hopefully I’ll be able to change the sig with something else sooner. Long overdue for a trip to the saw shop.

    You have one on order or is that a time frame for saving up for it? You have a OPE dealer or is that the shop with a vast selection of saws that we've seen pics of?

    My birthday is mid April. Time for me to start saving!

    I think he sleeps on spare chainsaws that are hid under and in his couch. Also uncomfortable, but at least out of sight. :thumbs:

    So..... did you ever say you wouldn't get a tractor with a grapple ?
    Not so easy to hide unless you put it behind a new dump trailer.
