Good choice Bob, I've used many different mottles and brands of chainsaws over
the last couple of decades and I think that you get the best performance and
reliability for you're money with Stihl. my local Stihl Dealer has just
retired so I guess that I'll have to buy my next saw online. I currently have
a commercial grade Stihl with a 20 inch bar which has cut a lot of fire wood I
don't remember the model number. At this point I'm in the market for a smaller
Stihl with a 16 Inch Bar for cutting up the smaller stuff around my yard.
Good luck with your new saw:
Paul Franklin

It was good to see all the chain saw stuff recently. I was trying to decide
what to get in one. Today I will pick up a new stihl 181. It is supposed to be
light and fast. I almost got the mod 180 but the guy said the new emission
standards will easily be beat by the mod 181 that just came out.
I am not sure of the exact cost yet. The mod 180 was going to cost 182 bucks
and he said the mod 181 will be almost 50 bucks more. I'm sure with the oil and
other stuff it will be close to 300 with tax.
