Do I need a 562XPGW?

[dustinwilt68]

Have the funds gathered up for one but questioning how much I need one. I have 3 50cc saws, 1 60cc saw and 2 70cc saws, and truthfully I dnt use them enough, I have 1 ported 70cc saw and appointments for a 50cc and 60cc to be ported in march. I was told that the xpgw option will not be there in 2017 and my dealer has given me a good price at $700.00 plus tax with a 20 inch bar and chain
Thoughts?

Everyone needs a 562

Get it, and sell off some other ones, you won't need/want them any more.

I agree

Buy it and sell the 353 and 357 if you need the space. You won't ever want to run them anymore.

I wnt be selling any off that I have, I sold my new 562XP and dolmar 6100 and dolmar 5105, what is left are all exceptional.

 

[mdavlee]

Yes

Buy it and sent it to Alan Wolthuis aka @awol you will not regret it. It will be a seriously strong saw.

Compared to probably everyone on this forum I am new to chainsaws. However I love the Dolmars I have and just ordered another one from @fordf150 that I know I don't "need". Struggled a couple days with the decision but once I did it - it was a relief and I now can't wait for it arrive. So based solely on my recent experience I say YES - end the misery and get it!

 

[junkman]

You dont need it.

 

[Duane(Pa)]

You mean you're on here asking US if you should get another chainsaw? I can holler downstairs & ask my wife if you want. Better just get it, then ask us if you blundered...

 

[Nitehawk55]

Short answer with what you already have.......NO

 

[sunfish]

I didn't need a 562 but got one any way. That was almost 5 years ago and still have it. The 357's I have aren't goin anywhere though.

 

[dustinwilt68]

Yeah I was thinking of looking for a new in box 357xp to match my 346xp.

 

[Ryan Browne]

All I can say as the recent purchaser of a heated handlebar saw is, get it. I don't know where you live, so maybe you never have need for heated handles, but holy smokes did my firewood cutting experience get better when I got mine.

That's a better idea.....

 

[dustinwilt68]

Any ideas on who to ask?

Might just save the funds and wait for THAT saw when 1 comes up, nice saws always come up when you are broke.
