Spoke with the sales guy yesterday. Apparently I can get the Husqavarna 395xp for $1330 stocked with a 28" bar

This saw is an animal 6.6hp 94cc and $400 cheaper than the 500i

Plenty of bar and fast.
Good price?

But you're not so desperate for attention and devoid of personality to make thread about it.

You'll just be a man and do it
Not sure if I remember the last time I've ever been clean shaven ?

Any recos on a telescopic ladder? I had no idea how pricey they were.
Extension ladder? How high do you need to go? Don't cheap out. If its personal use it will probably last you a lifetime. A good ladder should be heavy and durable. If it's light and has any flex, walk away. I spent about $400cdn on my 2-32' extension ladders.

Should clarify, $400 per ladder

Yeah the one that retracts for storage. I won't need to go any higher than 10-15 feet. I'm 6'4" so I can make it work if the ladder is on the shorter side. I searched Little Giant as I know someone who has one and was surprised at how expensive they can get.

They're solid ladders. There are several similar models to the little giant. It's a 1 time purchase so might as well get the best available. I bought this one for around the house. Well worth the price. And stores nicely. There is shorter models as well.

I feel like you're trying to talk yourself into compromising for a lesser saw. Stay strong.

My daughter just bought a chainsaw to shape her bonsai trees .

Neat little tools they are


For tree cutting use a manual saw or an axe and stop being the problem of softening up future generations .

Thanks

While I'm still waiting for my 395xp I picked up a couple saws to add to the husqavarna lineup. I got a smaller, daily use saw. 435xp. 2.2hp and 41cc with 16" bar.
Bought the boys a toy saw 440 with 8" bar. Not sure the hp!

My big saw was supposed to be here early april now expected end of the week. Fingers crossed
