    Here are my most used saws. The 372xp is missing from the picture though.

    That Earthquake 4518 is a beast:rofl: :lol::rootintootin::dancer::banana: IMG_20150614_184511_848.jpg

    I like a 70cc saw for cutting most firewood.

    I saw 60cc is the minimum needed for efficient use of time with the best being the 70cc also

    That's cause you haven't ran a 50cc that's faster than 70cc.;)

    If I had one I sure would use it!!! Be nice to shed 3+ pounds of saw and not give up speed.

    Update... I got a good deal on a new 28" TechLite! :D

    I think it's a nice addition to an already awesome firewood saw!

    My 446 is by far the most versatile saw I own.

    I do not need a chainsaw often, but when I do, a 18" gas powered saw is what I chose...

    Stay thirsty my friends..
