So the anniversary was last week, lo and behold in the shed, a brand spanking new orange Stihl MS290 “farm boss”. I was truly touched, because I mentioned once I wanted one with an 18″ bar, and I know that thing comes standard with 16, which means she paid attention. Must be payback for the Kitchen Aid she got for her birthday.
The only saw I have owned is a tiny Echo MS300, anyone run a Stihl?

I've got one. Mine has been a bear to start since day 1. I think it's probably just too lean, but it hasn't caused me enough pain to bother adjusting it yet. So far, no other complaints.
I had some trees taken down by a pro a few years ago and he showed up with three Stihls.
