I love my stihl 320, it's just big, trimming is a work out with it, but if you want to drop a tree, even a fairly large one, it does a great job. It is probably the easiest to start saw I have ever owned.

 

MTD can build some half-way decent things, as long as you don't go entry level with them! My Cub Cadet has been doing well for 3 years

 

the little husky I bought had plenty of power, but the easy-tight chain was a falure, I couldn't keep the chain on it. If you have ever had a chain sling off a saw......... and it did it 3 times in 1 day. lucky I still have hands. bye bye to that one

 

Never had that problem Charlie. Makita makes an ok chainsaw. I worked on enough of them when I worked for Home Depot.

 

log splitter is mtd, as well as my riding tractor. both are great pieces. I have replaced the motor on the log splitter 1 time (15 years) and rebuilt the tractor 1 time (10 years) course the lawn tractor was a pos until I painted the flames on it, lol

 

well just my luck took the 90 to work today
the 95 van had bad front brake pads
came home put on new pads

Murphies law~~~

You have to be kidding, Jr!

 

you know the wheel cyls will twist off when you go to bleed the rear brakes..... It comes in 3's

 

MTD

Murray Tool and Die
great folks to deal with

Junior needs a NEW van!

 

nope

bite your tongue Charlie

 

It's only 16 years old Bud
new for me

 

I had an older Cab Cadet (year 2000) that I wasn't impressed with. The one I bought 3 years ago is MUCH better!

 

jr it is true things happen in threes.

 

because that one was still an IH. Junk. You have to keep a parts one in the back yard to keep the one in the front yard running. Ask Bud about that.
