The 661 feels very very very nice with a 28" light. They are just really nice saws. They really surprised me. I still plan on borrowing my brothers 661 often;)
 
So Clint, What length bars are you using on the 262 and 044?
I started out the day with a 20" on the 262, and a 25" on the 044... But somehow I installed a .058 chain on the .050 bar. :dumb: It worked for a minute. The only other bar and chain I had was a 32", so that's what I used. Not ideal, but it worked. This 044 seems to be stronger than my MS440.

nice load! Looks like fun. :)
Fun?? I don't know about that. o_O
 
what year / model is your truck? it's tough to find many older trucks on the east coast in decent shape, way too much salt. frames are gone in 10 yrs or so.
 
LASLAB and I r friends!! Lol! He lives about 15 miles from me! I almost bought it. Nice bar!

I see I should have known, just noticed he is in LA also! I think I will like it on either the 441 or 661, even tough it maybe heavy, just for bucking I think it will be fine. I ordered 2 lite bars also. Will see which I like better,,, :) He has a saw on order you might like!

Thoso 660s and 661s r nice no doubt. Im more excited about my 440 right now. I cut the squish band out last night and squish fell without base gasket at .020!! Almost 190psi just sticking it together for a second to try compression20150103_182442.jpg

looking good! I'd be excited bout that also! I'd like to have a 440, some day. I was 2 minutes late to the party on that one in the post the other day, with the 046 parts saw. Should have sent a PM as soon as I saw it!! But I was 2nd in line by the time I sent him one. Oh well, I'll keep looking, not like I need it! What you doing with both of yours?
