Ok, I'm a Stihl guy for better or worse. It's what I like and have bought for years. I got my 360 in a milk crate end of Spring and had a buddy put it together with a new HyWay P&C kit. Used it maybe 6x before it puked the jug again 
. So the guy felt bad, probably it was set up too lean, and offered me $150 for just the power head and is going to rebuild it on his dime for his dad that has an 059 I think. I took the deal as he will get more use out of it than I ever will.
So I'm down a saw. For whatever reason (CAD) I feel the need to replace it. I have a 170, 025 and 460 for the big stuff. Looked at a 590 yesterday at my saw shop and can't stop thinking about it. So for another $250 over what I got from the MS 360 I can have a pro-grade ( that's the claim) 60 cc saw for $400 with 5 yr warranty. The shop sells the big 2 plus Echo and they are pretty high on the Echo for the price. Probably go with the 18" bar so I don't mix up the 20" chains for the Stihl. What do you guys think? I know I don't NEED it, but I want it. Any thoughts from 590 owners either way? And he said for another $10 I can, and will do, a rim sprocket
