Poulan Pro 405

[redunshee]

I generally like to stick to the older Poulans(3400,3700 and 4000) but saw a Poulan Pro 405 for sale. Anyone have any experience with them good or bad? Thanks for any input you can give.

based on a Pioneer design. I think the P39 or 38.

The 405 is a newer version of the P42 after Poulan took over Pioneer/Partner. I have both the P42 and the Poulan Pro 405. Haven't used the 405 much, but if it is as good as the P42 you'll love the saw. They are 66cc and are a powerful saw. Only problem, parts are getting harder to get, but a good Poulan dealer should still be able to get most for you. What is the asking price for the saw? Does it look to be in good condition?

My bad, I thought the P40 saws were closer to 70cc.

Is this the saw that is for sale? This one looks to be in decent shape. Will probably go for a decent dollar.

I have a Poulan Pro 525. It is heavy, loud and cuts like there is no tomorrow. Tom

Yup. That's the saw. Maybe watch it for a while and see where bidding goes. Some prices on EBAY are way out there;esp for stihls. Poulans not being as popular can be had for decent prices, at times.
