    My two local dealers brought it up in conversation with me, one claiming to see/run it as well. Could be blowing smoke, but I doubt it.

    The electronic carb saws are alright. I have 4, but I'm not gonna buy another one new, holding out for fuel injection on my next purchase.

    If I was a betting man, which I'm not, I'd expect the release of the updated 441 before any update to the 461. It's been NLA for awhile now.

    I've had the itch for a 661. I'm holding out to see what the 462 is. I also heard there was a 661 that was fuel injected being tested. I'd hate to buy a saw then FI model come out the next week.

    This was the first thing that I thought of when I saw the teaser trailer with all the lighting above.

    Lol. Not quite what I had in mind.... Thinking more along the lines of a dirt-bike muff with the big expansion chamber, like a large winding colon, ready to pass gas.
