    Griz, you do not have to buy one! Go to a GTG where you can run one. The older saws are NOTHING like the saws we run today, they are just pure power nothing else. I got to run a Disston 2-man saw a few weeks ago, 335cc twin from 1946, 4 foot bar, put a BIG smile on my face!

    Yep they are loud, vibrate, use to much fuel, and not as reliable. What's not to love:D

    There is nothing wrong with being brand loyal :yes:

    Gtg are a fun way to run saws you didn't know existed and make you want to find them.

    Congrats on the new saw grizz!:dancer: A 50 & 70cc combo is perfect for firewood so long as there's a 90 still in the truck. ;)

    Isn't that a lot like a boat owner telling his wife, "if you let me buy this one, I'll never need a bigger boat!"

    I was saying that to Dex. He's been drooling over the Xpw that KRL built. It's almost time for it to be sold too.
