[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1452961, member: 18945"] I'm guessing he will be cutting mesquite and juniper...lots of it from some of the pics I've seen him post in the past. I 2nd Stihl. I have two MS290s. FarmBoss they call it. One still going strong since 2008, other one is only a couple years old. Both have been trouble free and easy start. I abused the crap out of the 1st one--cross ties..telephone poles, lots of cedar, red & white oak from hurricane ike and 2011 drought and chinese tallow. A little heavy for it's hp, but well made. At 67, I can easily start and handle it. Don't know what my neighbor has, but his smaller Stihl has an easy start of some kind and cuts like a dream. 18" bar and he could almost keep up with me and my 290 when we were cutting a oak tree off the road so we could get out.
