So I try and snag these Husqvarna 257's any chance I can. Don't let the fact that this isnt an "xp" fool you ! These are made from pro saw components....and last a long time ! Very nice mild mannered saw.....some say about a perfect Firewood cutter. I'd have to agree. This one is super nice...a shade over 150 psi compression....and ready to cut ! Good 20" bar..and two chains ..that are getting low in the tooth..but the rakers have been taken down appropriately . I cleaned it up..made some minor adjustments....new gas cap . Has a good Husqvarna carry case as well. Would like to get $250 shipped...as it will be a good $30 to $40 just in shipping the whole thing !
What a beauty! I remember when i was 12 or 13, my father was looking at buying one of these...... some how the dealer talked him into a plastic husqvarna 49??? GLWS
I don't want to hijack your ad HoneyFuzz, but cgraham1 said it is an open port design...what is the difference between that and (I guess) a closed port saw? Beauty of a saw tho, Fuzz.
