I"ve searched older posts and got an idea of what most think on saws. I only cut 3 or 4 truck loads of firewood, plus the use around the place...down tree"s, fence lines, that type of stuff.
Last saw was a Stihle 026(wentin on halves with the brother on it). It was decent saw, but it"s been in the shop a couple of times, and the brother has claimed it now, but it needs some work so I"m not complaining. Personally, I think the 026 was overpriced, but maybe I just had some bad luck.
I"ve found a Husqvarna 340, 16 inch used for $125, seems to run good. Any opinions on this model?? And I know a lot people don"t care much for the lower end Husqvarna"s, 142, 235, and 240"s. but has anybody actually used these saws and had trouble out of them?? I"m looking for a 16 or 18 inch saw that runs when I need it too. Any opinions??? Thanks
