So I'm a little confused did you guys actually have trouble , or where you just screwing with us?
As indestructible as Honda roofs are, I'd say it was actually trouble lol.

Trust me you wouldn't. All you would hear is.. "bleep tree, bleep rock, bleep'ing this bleep'ing that" lol. Old jarhead here. I work vulgarity like an artist works a paint brush lol. We were hot, sweaty, very tired and in no mood for that tree.
I totally get it, being an old Sailor and all... Getting caught in a situation when you know better and just a simple tool that is SOP to have, and for whatever reason you don't have it! Look so forward to meeting and riding with you guys...

Well, there will be at least two ugly old farts in the gang! Working on the "lumber Jack" side of the equation.... Think I chose a new saw, have to determine how I want to carry it and then drop the cash!

Long story that I won't get into here - but I'm down to zero gas powered chainsaws! My mind was all wrapped around a Stihl, but many reviews I read have the Husky as a better tool. Have yet to pul the trigger, but plan on something soon.

Husky makes good stuff. I got one of their backpack blowers last year.

When I researched for an all around easy to start dependable saw we got the 455 rancher it was stellar. Everyone knows how I run s*** and it lasted 5 years of my abuse. Left gas over the winters the whole deal. Never failed in any way not even the plug. Bought it used to. It was stolen and went 460 for a bit more power but it's not quite as good more eco friendly and safety crap that gets in the way. Two people up camping over the years have gotten the 455 because of ours and so far same thing. Can't comment on others but damn I like husky.

With a what in the bed? Coulda fooled me;) We could have used it against those drug smugglers after we ran out of bullets... Oh crap, I wasn't supposed to say anything was I?
I saw the video before you pulled it and it seemed like you two cleared most of those ass holes out of the area.

Seems like I was looking at the 450, trying to stick with the 18" bar... I also found some older discontinued models that are "factory refurbished" that looked interesting and might be pre environmental BS. It's not something that I will use every day or anything like that. But, I do want something that I can depend on. I've read (no personal experience) that Stihl has cheapened their product and is selling based on past reputation...

Knowing them it was the last one, it probably had a eagles nest in it as well. Lol
Well, after they whacked the bad guys and buried the remains and cut down the Red Wood with a dull hatchet they worked up one Hell of an appetite and nothing goes better with some fine Bourbon that Bald Eagle cooked over an open fire!!
