I ordered a new 550XP G with 16" bar  in early December. It finally came in after all my wood was cut for the season. So I still somewhat conflicted.  Now I have to find some wood to cut. I'm looking forward to the heated handles. Never had them before. I'm still a skeptic.

In that second picture it looks like something made in outer space :o. New look from the other husky saws I've seen, but still got that round husky look to it. It seems the style of today is coming to saws now too. How much did it cost?

You will like the "G".  ;D
I have wood to cut.   :D

They're getting some really good reports on another site, I think you're going to like it a lot.

I see you modified your post :D. You think I care about the design ??? My saws cut up a storm and I like it that way ;D. My older stihl cuts quite a bit slower than my newer one though. It's time for a tune-up but I'm too lazy. I'll use the new one instead :).

Wanted to make sure Chopper Dan has a place to try out his new handles.  :D I would hate for him to wait until next year heating season to try it out.  :D

Chopper Dan Nice saw,Did you buy it at Bruce's saw shop?Goldstein's ? Saw the Cub Cadet sign. Good luck.

I picked it up from Goldsteins. I've been doing business with them for years. They treat me right and Dave and Jeff know there stuff.
