    Oldman47 they say great minds think alike, I found and watched that same video just last night. Great looking saw. The only problem I see with it is that when they are finally available in Australia it's gonna cost me a weeks pay.

    I ran one the other day. Lets just say the quality is remembered long after the price is forgotten. If it was my saw it'd be a keeper for sure. It felt similar to a 7910 but with a little better throttle response.

    Husky had been working the bugs out of it for the last 5 years, and they are available now in Europe. I doubt there will be many, if any, problems with this model once it reaches the US.

    Wow! If it can match up with a 7910 i might just have to get one.

    I think the 7910 probably has more raw power, but the 572 felt like it had more zip spooling up. I will say Husky really dialed in the anti-vibe on this saw. One of the smoothest saws I've had the good fortune to run. They really seem to have taken their time and listened to feedback and built it right.

    I expect it will make an appearance at the Backwoods Savage spring gtg.

    I would LOVE one of them there saws. I sure do love my 562xp. Thing is a beast itself. Very well made too. I got a brand new fully updated version a few months ago.

    Really can't wait till these start showing up here the USA. I love the way my 562xp feels in my hand. It balances so well. I think the 572xp well be a great saw.
