My local dealer had a sale on saws yesterday only.. a full 20% off .. I picked up the 562 XP and the 435e x-torq.. I saved some good money on gear I'm going to use. The 435 is a smaller saw for limbing and smaller ground work... The 562 is for some of the larger trees that are down up the street.. the base is 41 inch so this saw will get me close to the end..Its a monster red oak..
 
You cut that Red Oak yet?

not yet.. busy at work.. last week was a 6 day work week... I though that we would be shut down but that's not the case here. so were going out and working..

looks like I'll be out the next couple of weeks. I'll get a weekend where I'll be able to hit it up..

I liked the 562xp I used when I did tree work. I prefer the 550xp I own now.

If I need bigger I get the 371xp but I rarely use it.

I have the 550xp.. needed something bigger.. the 55oxp is my go to saw.. it's a really good cutter.. needed a bigger saw for a tree I got coming up..
