I believe 18' is perfect for this saw. At least for eu members.
How much is 400.1 where you live? Is husky more or less?
I was thinking of dressing it with Tsumura Premium Light 20", 28" just for a few rough pines I'll be taking.
I'm not likely to use 15 and 28 much. If it balances perfectly with 20" I might go for 24 instead of 28.

Husqvarna and Stihl try to be roughly the same in terms of price setting, I think the 400.1 is a little cheaper though without checking.

The difference between Stihl and Husqvarna dealers is that two local Husqvarna dealers run 550xpg promotions a couple of times a year, around $750-800 instead of $1000 like most others charge.

There are many who are annoyed by these two (I am a customer of one of them lol), especially those who flip used saws, it is difficult to get $500 for a used mk2 when they are sold for $750 with a 2 and 5 year warranty.

Yes, like since the late 80’s; I think Echo first tried that, although they started with step timing and not fully variable.
I cant say when it started but Im 48 and it was before my time.

Husky's like 20% cheaper here but 564xp will sell around 1500€ while 400.1 is 1300€. It's more in a 500i range -1600€.

Well I just hope they made a reliable saw. There's no husky fans left among loggers
They are not what they once were, if it weren't for the fact that I love the ergonomics of the 242/246/346, I would have switched brand a long time ago.
