This is partially off topic but not entirely. And since we're not all men here, I'll play it as cool as I can. There is no intended offense, but I have to know...
Up north, when a group of men are drinking and wrenching on a truck.. Is it okay to "find" a toilet behind the garage or out in a corner of the yard where no one can see ya?
Believe it or not, I'm asking for a reason. I have two buddies from Deleware, one moved to the Houston area. The three of us were working on a Ford 6.0 and tossing back some Alaskan Amber Ale. I asked if it was alright to find a restroom behind the garage. They both stopped in their tracks and looked at me like I was crazy, then hesitently decided it was alright. Down here, I'd rather someone use the restroom in the back yard than get their greasy paws all over the door knobs.
Long winded, I know.. But I'm curious, as well as serious. Or as serious as you can be when asking a question like this

Thanks, it's a cool saw, but to be honest all I did was buy the thing. I had actually put a bid on an 084 and lost. I was depressed so put a bid on this one. when it's broken in and tuned kinda nasty it should absolutely scream. I kinda want to pull the muffler just to admire the porting, but I'm resisting. My 385 feels much better balanced and "tighter", but the 394 is big and loud and rough and I like it. Thanks again

My CAD is just not bad enough for big Stihl money at this point. Got my eyes open for an 084, but my $500 budget is not realistic

No its not, 500 really means 700, and if you are willing to do that , you may ad well go all in, 1100....

Not on my property. I have 2 400-500 year old live oaks which are at least 7-8' DBH, but I'm really hoping they outlive me. I just like big-ass saws. They just sound right and feel right. As I have said, If I was really sawing a lot I would use a much smaller saw. If you're only sawing for 2 hours, even a girlie man such as myself can handle the weight. There is no rationality involved. There is almost always a pretty big gulf between what one needs and what one likes

With big saws I can cut a lot,
Small saws not so much, boring:bang:
