390xp, 395xp, or 592xp for 36" Granberg Alaskan mill?

[semihandyAndy]

Hello guys,
Need some advice on which saw I should get for a 36" Alaskan chainsaw mill (maaaybe a 48" someday???). I will be casual user, for woodworking & barn repair timbers off my woodlot after I retire not long from now.
I run 3 smaller and older Jonsored saws, and do not have a lot of experience when it comes to saw carburetor maintenance / repairs.  My 3 saws have spoiled me!
So which of these would be be OK for what I am proposing? BTW I just came across a chance to buy a 390 in like new condition (<10 hours run time) for $950.
Thank you & hope to hear back from some of you,
Andy

395 all day long and everyday , Very good saw for a mill

Or the alternative:  Get a cheap bare bones bandsaw mill. A $2200-3500 mill will make lumber and square posts and run circles around a chainsaw mill.  And you'll enjoy it more.  If you were at a remote location with difficulty getting into it, that is another matter. But out on the homestead, get a bandsaw mill.

As far as the Granberg goes, I run a 394xp.  A friend uses a 3120xp.  The results are about the same but he burns a lot more gas.  If I was thinking of a larger/longer mill I would likely go for the bigger saw though.  Swampdonkey brings up a good point if you are setting up in one location.  My son had a Woodland band mill when he was building barns and sheds and they are a lot faster.  Depends on your circumstances.

Thank you all for the excellent advice! 
Yes, I agree that a mill is the way to go, but some of the trees that come down due to storms are falling in wetlands where removing slabs individually is much more feasible than a whole fat green hardwood log.
I have to buy a big saw anyway, and the Alaskan is just a short term solution.  I'm pretty sure it will be easy to sell around here once I get a mill and a better tractor to move the logs to the mill.
Of course I would also need to build a kiln, and a shed to store the mill, and buy a winch for the tractor, and so on ...
The more I think on it, the more spendy this dream becomes!

To run a 36 inch alaskan mill the 395 is the only choice of those saws , it has a carb you can set richer to deal with the engine heat and has the power
