I've a Husqvarna Rancher 55 and am extremely pleased with it. Best saw
I've ever owned, or used bar none! You'll probably find several reviews
by checking http://www.epinions.com FWIW, I got mine via a low price
guarantee between Sears and Lowes (both carry the Huskys obviously),
paid $286 incl tax for mine.

My trusty old Stilh 031 is about dead and parts are getting hard to
find, so I'm looking for a new saw .. .. ..
Narrowed it down to another Stihl or possibly a HUSQVARNA .. .. ..
anyone have recommendations PRO/CON for either brand ?? ?? ?? Haven't
yet settled into a specific model number in a Stilh, but am looking at
the #359 and the #55 .. .. ..

thanx in advance !!
