You know you have an issue when you would part with a 372xp over your beloved 038 Magnum....

There is not much more I wanna say about this...

But it is true, for many years I have pined over getting another 3 series Husky after selling my first saw (371) around 10 years ago..

Now I have one and I like my 038 magnum so much more...

I just don't understand, I mean I really dont. I think it is the torque..

Is this acceptable?

In short ... yes

Upload a couple of youtube clips so we can hear the difference?

 

[Adamski]

In short ... yes

YES!!!

I know logically this is wrong but I cannot help the way my mind works.

Yep I will go with that... Torque hoe

Guess I like to see a saw cut and never stop for anything, that is this 038, lean and lean on it and it just cuts faster....

Any time you pick a Stihl over a Hoosky that's Acceptable. lol

Don't listen to him, he is still wet behind the ears, and knows not of what he speaks.

Fact!

 

[Manofstihl661]

Just by sound it sounds like a man and a woman. The husky is higher pitched and talks a bunch more. The Stihl doesn't say a lot but it comes with authority in a deep grumble

I eradicated all the full orange saws from the herd/shop a few years ago, the shop smells better and there are no broken down saws in there any more....LOL

Admit it, you were just skeered of their awesome power.

 

[Basher]

Was scared of all the parts falling off !!

 

[rocketnorton]

if I had to just have one saw it be 288. 038 [m or s] is #2.

I haven't run an 038 Mag, but I did try an 038 Super AV I fixed for a friend... Torquey? Yes. Good running and strong? Yes... but IMHO a 372 it aint. Maybe the Mag is a bit more stout? Not raggin on anyone, to each his own, just my $0.02
