Anything over 79.9cc falls into a different EPA category. I believe Stihl will be the only manufacture to spend the money for that category. But it will raise prices for saws in that category.
The end of gas powered saws is getting closer than most realize.
All saws over 100cc will need to go to East Falmouth Mass for proper disposal.Are they gonna take away my 125s and 166s?
That would be like taking all pre epa diesel off the road, that’s going to take a lot! Or 74 and older carsWe’re already seeing it on the equipment side of stuff the day is coming.

That’s a lot of trucks to get rid of, I can’t see them getting rid or 07 and older truck, without a big fight, I have heard of them taking about it, but reality is they would have to buy them back, or people will loss it!! I don’t have an old diesel but I would make them buy it or I would fight to keep it!The stuff they are talking about is 2007 would be the cut off for diesel if it’s older for on/off highway applications wouldn’t be allowed.

As already mentioned, if the development costs are to high they won’t do this. A businessman who never cut wood in his life decide that, only to earn more money.I would like to see an 85-88cc and a 100cc, why have direct cc competition in a cc class IMHO! Wouldn’t a super light 599 or 5100xp be nice, an update and lighter big bore 395 would be awesome, they could even go 111cc and not have any competition
Unfortunately that is a reality of business! Business is business, but sometimes those decisions end up killing a company, that’s how McCulloch homelite and poulan ended up dying, start killing the big saw, and development and focus on the consumer market...it’s the most profitable! Haha! Mini macs and xl2’s for days! Yuck! LolAs already mentioned, if the development costs are to high they won’t do this.

Either a heavy pig or out of juice in a few cuts.They want everything to go electric...cool and all but now you’re in the woods and batteries dropping like flies. Oh just go fire up the generator and charge them [emoji19]. I would like to see the battery saws to replace large gas saws, wonder what they’ll look like.
