    The Husqvarna 562XP is on sale for $655. Any thoughts? Opinions? Experience? Everything here is Lodgepole and Ponderosa Pine. Comparable saws?

    That’s less than I gave for mine about 4 years ago. And I love it.
    If I was in the market for one I’d be on that like a duck on a grasshopper.
    But I’m thinking I need a 572 or 592 now :emb:

    It seems to be nationwide. It's on Amazon for all the models they carry and then tractor supply and other online venues I've seen. I think it ends September 4th but appears to be 20% off all models.

    Gentleman is a dealer in Florida that has a great reputation & puts this on OPE Forum when sales come up.

    I can vouch for HL Supply. Made several purchases including the 550xpg and always a great experience. FYI, get the oil or pre-mix and extend the warranty to 5-years. Worked for me a couple years ago.

    Is Gentleman a member on this forum? Anyone have a phone number? I'd like to support someone rather than Amazon.

    You can find "Gentleman" over on the Outdoor Power Equipment forum (OPE). His name is Bruce and he runs HL Supply out of Dayton Beach, FL. His user name is "Gentleman" on OPE. I've bought a 550xp and a couple of bars from him. Great guy to deal with. Reach out to him over there and he'll get you squared away.

    I’ve ordered quite a few things from HLSUPPLY. Does a guy have to be on that forum to get the deal ( I am not on it) or can you just call them and get it?

    It’s best to just pm Bruce on the OPE Forum

    You are correct. Guessing you would have to go through OPE, but hey, more new friends you haven't met yet.

    Thanks to help from JimBear, I bought the 562XP, 24" bar and chain, extended to 3 year warranty for a little over $700. Shipped out the same day, impressive. Thanks HL Supply and Bruce!
