661R Fever ...it's here!!!

[maulhead]

But the R has them cool lookin dawgs.

hell yeah thee do!!

I took those dawg part #'s and wide cover # to two different dealers out here, and they both told me they are not in the system.

They asked what they were for, I told them part #'s for a 661, oh they said we dont have those saws yet, why do you think we can get parts!?

I'd like to have a set of those dawgs and wide cover for me 661!!

But the R has them cool lookin dawgs.

And I have those on order They've been on back order for several weeks now.

 

[Mastermind]

Have y'all priced a 3/4 wrap?

 

[blsnelling]

Have y'all priced a 3/4 wrap?

I see what you're saying there! Buy the R model, sell the wrap, and buy a new 1/2 wrap?

 

[Mastermind]

Yeah.......I was like......WOW.

Brad, what numbers did you end up with in the 661?

I'm at 102, 122, and 85.

I'm not liking that intake number......

 

[maulhead]

I was going to do like brad said, buy a R and sell the handle and put a 1/2 wrap on it. But then Tnshaker posted the regular model in the trading post and I bought it. I'd like to buy a set of R dawgs and wide cover still.

I see a local dealer here has them posted on the web, I'm surprised, I thought we would have to wait some. Not sure if he actually has them in stock. I'm afraid to go look, might buy something I don't really need!

By all means go look at one, or ask him to get one out of the warehouse/distributor, so you can look at it in person! You need one, you know you do, it's been a year now since you bought a brand new saw, that is not feeding your CAD very well at all. 1 year is to long of a dry spell

I'm interested if they have them in stock and also their pricing....

 

[Dave4610]

According to UPS my 661R will be here Thursday. Unfortunately I have lost my excitement about the saw at this point.....

Redbull660 paylesspizzaman will get his excitement Back once he gets his hands on that 661

"ITS A MONSTER I TELL YOU".!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Spectre468]

As I said earlier in this thread: it will be worth the wait and hassle. I can understand you disappointment and discouragement, but I think you'll have a hard time wiping the grin off your face when you get it into wood. I actually laughed out loud.

 

[Dave4610]

Just a price update, 661 w/25" Coldwater, OH msrp $1219, $1100 cash. 661 W/25" Berne, IN $1100 cash. 661R Berne, IN $1175 Cash.

 

[Dave4610]

It would actually be really cool if we had a price/location list on this site for all the saws and dealers. Just one that is user updated like the gasbuddy app on smartphones.

 

[MustangMike]

You presume they always charge the same price!

 

[Dave4610]

Very true, but it would still give a gerneral feel as a whole for the price and also let you know if that particular dealer decided to rape you.

 

[MustangMike]

You can usually check MSRP on their website.
