U got it man ! Let the saw warm up for a good 2-3minutes vs starting it up and yarding on it right away. Top end will last WAY longer

id love to have an oem 044 or 440. i have the g444 big bore ported and i love it.

[@Man-Time]

Ported saws that run good are plenty to get the job done

[@matthewknight5641]

the 440 is the best all around saw i think but i do love the 550 mark2 for most the work i get to do

[@Man-Time]

I did everything with a 350 for many years. Many times I prefer lugging 5 less lbs around

[@matthewknight5641]

@Man-Time man you ain't joking. I'm 46 now and 20 years ago I wouldn't mind the weight of a 660. 10 years ago a 440... now days a 50cc saw is what I grab almost always. I love messing around with my saws but for any real work it's hard to beat a strong 50cc saw

[@Man-Time]

No doubt that’s right

Yes Sir, the 044 is def 1 of my fav Stihls and on the other side of the coin is the Husqy 372. Dunno if I could pick my fav between those 2 as they both go on the back of the pickup when I'm cutting. I'll start off with the 044 but at the end of the day (literally) I'll grab the 372 just because of its superior AV....

[@Man-Time]

Those two 70cc class saws are really handy for medium to big wood! Excellent grabs for varied to unknown wood size, and all day firewood

[@fabzacres-blackcat]

A fuzz above the g372 eh ? 😂😂😂
