Glad ya replied Peter. I noticed you didn't say whether you was in favor of your company reaping the rewards of all those low grade saws sold by thier biggest customer of all, Sears. Now ya can't have it both ways Peter. You can't srcream how bad the 290 is and yet be in favor of Husky reaping the rewards of all those super low grade saws sold at Sears, their biggest customer in the world.

I agree the 290 is no 361 nor is the price the same either. Not everyone needs a 589.00 saw to do one tree in the back yard. You seem to always boast about XP saws but frown on homeowner Stihls as though the homeowner Stihl should be as good as the XP Husky. I've personally worked on many homeowner grade Huskies here at the shop and they are nothing to write home about, that I can assure you, but I don't mix them with their pro saws as equals. Ya need to keep the apples with the apples and the oranges with the oranges when comparing these two brands of saws.

Far as the American market goes Stihl rules, like it or lump it, those are the facts. In your home country sure Husky rules, they should. You think Stihl doesn't rule in Germany where they are made, hmmmm. That said whats left, the whole world,ok, go country to country and see who is top dog. The whole world can't be wrong and Sweden be the only one right, sorry, just isn't possible, especially after almost a half a century at the top.....

Thall ... I'm not in favor for Husky or Stihl reaping any awards from selling Rancher or Farm boss. Further, I've never compared the 290 to a Husky XP saw. I have also never said that the homeowner who cuts one tree in the backyard should have a Xp or Pro Stihl. Just not the 290. 340, 350, MS250, anything. But this thread has nothing to do with the 290, so I suggest we leave it. I also never said that Stihl doesn't control the market i Germany.
Next time, read twice ok? I said that all in all (all markets) Stihl must sell more low end saws than Husky does, mostly because they sell more saws.
And in Germany, where pepole buy Stihl and noone even knows what Husky is if he isn't a pro logger, the Huskys sold are probably pro saws right?
You are probably the most biased person I've ever talked to Thall No wonder since you are a Stihl dealer but still..

"....go country to country and see who is top dog. The whole world can't be wrong and Sweden be the only one right, sorry, just isn't possible.."

Now what's this? Have I ever said that Husky sells more saws than Stihl? No :deadhorse:
Have I ever said that Sweden is the only reasonable country? No :deadhorse:

Stay to facts and quit the groundless accusations.

Now now here I tried to be nice to ya and you start with a temper tissy. If I recall correctly it was you that used the POS motto and the crap motto in describing saws, not me.

I am glad to see you don't agree with one company reaping the rewards of anothers low grade equipment that the one company owns. I give ya high five for that but it doesn't change the facts does it, they continue to do it.

Peter let me give you a little piece of info that I know you do not know. See I'm in the know somewhat thanks to a few connections I have. Stihl looked into the Sears, Lowes thing and saw how well Husky performed. They estimate they themselves could increase sales by at least 40% if they did the samething. Now the clincher , they refused it claiming they don't need it nor do they want to tarnish they're reputation. So it appears Stihl treasures their reputation more than the almighty dollar, the same can't be said for E-lux...

Now I'm with you, enuff of this. Put it back on the hot rod 346 thats yet to arrive here. I'll get one if Manaul does so I'm not bias at all, I'm a happy Dolmar owner BTW so hush with the bais Peter, it tant so, I got the saws to prove it.......

I'll get a 346xp as soon as my 1995 254xpg dies (12 years old and still kicking stihls 260's butt)

SO Stihl thinks selling there saws at Box stores would tarnish there reputation, Whys that ? I know.
Because Stihl would not be able to hide the fact that there Home owner saws are just as bad as those saws that other company are reaping the profits on

346xp

All I want to know is when the new 346xp is hitting the US?
I dont care about specs and stihl vs husky vs dolmar debates.
I cut all day every day and have very little time on the computer because Im out actually working.
Right now ( and all season ) Ive been topping with a dolmar 5100s. Alot more power than a 346xp but heavy and bulky and sometimes a ????? to start.
Ive always used 346xp ( before that 242xp's before that 42's ) for topping but always looking for more power I picked up a couple dolmar 5100's.
If anyone knows when the new 346xp is comming I would appreciate the heads up before I order a couple more dolmars.
By the way I run Huskys, dolmars, and stihls who cares!!!
I run what works best for the situation. For anything 24" bar and up
Stihl 660's. 20" bars Dolmar 7900's.( replaced husky 372's and 385's ) 16" bars Husky 346xp and Dolmar 5100's
After 17 years in the tree removal game and trying everything on the market this is what works best for me.

Opppppppps

Ya say ya got a 12 year old Husky that still runs, I'm calling channel 9 now, thats a news story and a half,

You should ask your local Husky dealer, Maybe Spike will chime in soon.
He always tells us when Husquvarna's new products hit the market in the U.S.

If ya said as good they wouldn't be over there in the first place,haha.

Skip all that non-sense, when ya getting this new 346xp??? You can't come on here with all that hoop la and not buy the saw, that just aint right. So to make it fair since I don't buy all the hoop la I'll buy one too. That way we will both know what were yaking about. See I sold you a saw at last even if I had to buy it too, teach ya to mess with DUKE.,lol

I'm still waiting for the 346 to come out in the Jonsered line for the U.S.
Jonsered sells them in other Countrys.
See I am supporting Jonsered.

They are much worse, at least compared to Huskys.......:hmm3grin2orange: :hmm3grin2orange:
