Hey everyone. Looking for my first chainsaw. Was just given an old Mac 3200 32cc but the parts to fix it are about 50 bucks and I was told it's not worth it as I could buy a comparable cheap saw for "not much more". I'll work on cheaper parts since I'd like to get it working anyway.
However I have had my eyes on a Husky 445 which is 479.99. Just for around camp and when 4 wheeling. Seems like a real good saw for my needs.
At at the store I went to they recommended a Stihl 170 for $199.99. Much smaller, which is nice as we use a 2 door Jeep. Anyone know how good this saw is? The price seems low for a quality saw.
This store sells both Husky and Stihl so the recommendation was not based on that. The guy seemed like a real nice fellow not just trying to make a sale. Told me to call back once a month because he is expecting a package deal for the 170 that will come with a case, hat, file, and some other stuff for the same price of 199.99. Happens every year he said.
