    I sent my 660 off to be thoroughly rebuilt & turned up after a year of running it bone stock. The performance gained simply wasn't worth the pain of it not starting, running like crap in the winter, overheating in the summer and using more fuel than the chipper. Maybe I'm just getting old but I don't even run modified exhausts anymore. The manufacturer knows best imo.

    Another great video!! I loved your comments and opinions. As well as all the great information about the two saws. Just what i was looking for. I have two souped up saws and 5 other stock saws. Love all of em! My two hot rods i have to say have been amazing. Stihl 461, and a little 346XP. That little husky is a rippin little sob man! I have a 16" sugi LW bar and run stihl .325 RS chisel chain. It's pretty impressive.
    I can see both sides of the equation...completely happy with my stock saws as well. No need to run out and get everything hopped up. My ol 281 Husky is bone stock. Rock hard compression and just has the cool old school big block stock sound. And that is definitely a down side to modding your saw is the extreme noise from opening up the muff's. I actually went back to stock on my 461 with a couple small holes in it is all. Opening up that sucker was like unleashing the bowels of hell man!! Way too obnoxious!!

    • @Good.Fellers

I have 3 huskies I use in my firewood business only when my logger brings me cull logs that are way to big for my processor and I have to take them for the price he gives them to me. My 1st friend that got hurt is still alive but has been crippled from getting hit in the head 40 years ago they did a show on the land rescue they did for him that whole thing that happened to him made me not to want to be a logger stay safe thanks for the videos I moved up to a 562 xp from watching your videos I am going back going back to the shop and get a bigger saw and the 455 and 460 will retire after 10 years they need a rest

    I've got a few saws that I cut white oak with and they are ported saws. My latest ported saw is a 592xp and it's crazy good. Starts first pull every time after it has been started in the morning. I run a 8 pin sprocket on it and a 28 inch bar and it does great. Very easy on fuel compared to my 500i. My ported echo 7310 also starts first pull and no issues and cuts very good with 28 inch bar. This is with 90 octane non ethanol fuel because no matter what chainsaw you're using for work, you don't need race fuel. I'd run 87 in mine if I could find it local without ethanol. Nice timber and nice cutting!

    I always open up the oiler holes on the bar They are way too small and I never seem to get enough oil on a 24+ inch bar. The majority of the oil drips down the side of the side of the saw and ends up in the bottom of my transport case and not on the bar. I don’t have an adjuster screw on some of my saws and it wouldn’t matter anyways if the oil can’t get on the chain.

    As far as stock vs "built", here's one old man's opinion: for every modification you make, your "service load" or time you spend servicing/working on your saw goes up.
    I won't say that built saws don't have value in the woods or that one is better than the other; just be willing to live with the tradeoffs.
    Oh yeah, my 395 is retired, due to the 592xp.

    Hello,
    Have you personally cut with a Stihl 661 and if so, which saw would you say cuts faster regardless of species and/or diameter? I already know the 592xp is .25hp more power, torque but would like to hear your honest thoughts.
    Thanks and look forward to see your 592xp updates.

    • @Good.Fellers

      Honestly I haven’t run a stihl saw since 2009ish I bought one 660
      I’m of the mindset that stihl saws just don’t come close to the husky’s
      With that being said I’m a 395 guy because the seam to run faster and have more torque the the 660s
      I have no experience with 661s and honestly I’ve only put a day and a half on the 592 and I’m taking it back to the shop I bought it from because of a carb issue
      I will make a video explaining in few weeks

Stihl only offer 6 months on their pro saws which is just a complete joke and there's no match to the 592xp.

    The issue with that saw is that the 592 costs roughly $600 more than the Stihl 661 around here. So there is just no way the Husqvarna can outperform the Stihl by that much. Especially since all the Husqvarna saws I met personally (about a dozen) all had carburator and starting issues. Just like their Jonsered clones. My boss actually always carried one extra saw with him just because of those issues. But he is so much of a Husqvarna fanboy that he only bought Stihl saws for his employees and one extra Husqvarna for himself...

      Ok, just to be clear I don’t care what anyone else runs. With that being said I personally don’t run stihl saws because as a young timber cutter the guys I looked up to ran 395s. I wondered why. The answer to that question is the stihl O66 was slow and clumsy compared to a 395. I was hooked after switching from a 066. Now after years of running 395s I’m starting to run 592s. I’m not sure where your at in the world but that price difference seams odd. Anyway do what ever you want and I’ll do the same.
      This is all my opinion, if you disagree please be respectful.

      Don’t be that guy. I look up plenty to access the situation before I ever cut a tree. Quite frankly I’ve had enough of these type of comments. It’s Saturday afternoon and I just cut a 29inch walnut tree and I’m answering a comment from a wise apple. If you don’t like my content don’t watch. If ya dig it,say nice things.

      Yea make sure you look up instead of at the chainsaw your operating, that way you get smacked in the mouth with a limb instead of your hard hat makes perfect sense…I bet you’re a BBR fanboy 😂😂 leave the hardwoods to the men kiddo

    Worst faller yet. Dropped it right into a jackpot. No safety shown once so ever. Mouthy as f. But not backing up your own talk with those jeans on. Pfff Americans. Can’t teach old dogs new tricks. I had to get rid of my old faller because of those bad habits. Back barring is against our regulations up in big timer territory. Guess you get away with that in the u.s.

      Yeah we still have a little freedom left. Also I’m not buying what you’re selling bud.
