    I waited most of the day for the big brown truck to stop by work today. :ups:he finally got there about 2pm, I left work at 2:30. Lol.
    I got the saw home and headed for the log pile. I am really impressed with this saw, loving the 2172 so far. Saw really seems strong for stock, love the anti-vibe. The saw is a very smooth running saw, in everyway. I coild not be more pleased. I made a few adjustments on her before I really got to cutting, it was a little hard to start at first. I got her going, made the fine tuning adjustments and it ran great from then on. I made several cuts on different size logs and like I said, I was more then pleased. I am in know way an expert, buts this is as good as any saw in it's class so far, that I have owned or ran. May do a muff mod, but outside of that think it will be great for my needs the way it is. :thumbs:
    A couple pics for you;
    First one, before I ran her and second one this evening when I got finished. I will really give her a work out this weekend. :D The RED is SEXY!!!!!

    From one Jonsered owner to another, " you will not be disappointed". All my Jonsered saws never missed a beat.

    I knew you'd like it. They are a great saw. And, as good as they run stock, the muffler mod will unlock a new gear for it. God Bless

    I knew you would love it. I put together a 372 from two parts saws both I got free off loggers. Its got some hours on it and is pretty beat but still cuts like a beast. Would love to have a new orange or red version!
