What are you cutting? Do you want them to both be the same saw, or a big-and-little saw pair? What kind of wood? How often will you be using them?

More info means better answers!

WTF? Not terribly helpful. I can't even figure out what it means.

Isn't there at least one Stihl dealer up there in the kingdom.I know there was one in Hardwick or Greensboro Bend and another in St. Johnsbury area. They could probably give you the answers.

 

[NEK VT]

sorry

sorry what I mean is I know what i can do with what size saw... I just wanted to know what saw i can get two of with that price.... size not really being a factor...

 

[NEK VT]

who

who in st jhonsbury? who in hardwick?

 

[TooTall999]

There are at least 3-4 Stihl dealers in your area.Your best bet is to go talk with one of them.I recommend Gebbie's in East Hardwick..nice guy,good to deal with

 

[Erick]

Depends on what you want to do with them???

I'll asume that your cutting general firewood, storm clean up, and pruning around the house

An MS361 and a MS180 would make a nice saw combo for that type of work in that price range

Or if you were doing larger projects or just getting real serious about your cutting, I would highly recomend the MS460 / MS260 combo. Thats what I use and I'll say you would have to look long and hard to find trees this setup won't handle. (I know someones gonna post a pic ). Not gonna be in your price range though unless you buy used.

I think what people are trying to tell you is that its better to buy a saw(s) based on projected usage, amout and frequency of use rather than price alone.

Case: I need a car.

You: I need 2 identical cars costing $40,000 total.

AS recommendation: How will you use the car.

Good luck,

Jack

Ah, gotcha.

Assuming Stihl: MS260, MS260Pro, MS280, MS310, MS390, maybe MS361 if your dealer likes you.

Assuming Husqvarna: 339, 346xp, 350, 353, 359, and maybe 357xp.

And for Dolmar: 5100s, 6400.

And for Home Depot: you should be able to get four used Makita 6401 for that price.

Or an 075 and an 076:

 

[sawinredneck]

OK,

A 192t and a 200t

a 200t and a 390

a 260 and a 390

a 290 and a 390

a 460

a 440 and a 170

a 361 and a 192t
