I glad you like your new saw, and I know echo has made good stuff for years. But I think that is about enough from the super duper steel cutting tree slaying, granite eating, chain breaking 590. I would love to run my 044 against a 590 or 600 with a 25 in bar both burred in something hard.
That's two different class saws there isn't it? 60 and a 70? And how much was the 044 brand new?
I have only run in the same ballpark there a 55 rancher and a 600p, no contest the 600p was stronger/faster better built. Haven't run any modern ranchers or farmboss saws so can't say how it compares.
For 4 bills brand new the 590 echo is a decent deal I would think. That's the models the 590 is competing with price point money vs performance, ranchers and farmbosses.
