Unfortunately people around here equate Echo as "cheap chinese"... I hear differently from the forums here, now I want to get one....and a Dolmar....

Echo makes a really solid chainsaw. A bit on the heavy side, size for size compared to others, but they are very well designed.

That's not one you get to see every day.

I didn't get arsonist vibes from him either. Hopefully, he is ok.

To add some perspective to this mystery: Jugs and I had a 26 page direct message that we talked back and forth on almost daily for a while. He was really getting into logging with that Timberjack he bought and he had questions, I had answers, and it continued from there about other logging related topics. The last time he messaged me was Feb 18th, 2024. I checked in on him 10 days later without a reply. Again a month later, asking how his Lymes was doing. Again no reply.

I know he was obnoxious in this thread, and even abrasive to some of you, but my opinion is that he was trying a bit too hard to fit in. He wasn’t that way at all in our PM. If I remember right, he’s 10-12 years younger than me.

Anyway, don’t mean to ramble, but I’d like to find out why he just ghosted this site, and Forestry Forum, without warning.

He didn’t bother me and I liked the banter

You said obnoxious, abrasive, and this thread. I raffed.

In the long run the toughest talking guys seem to be the ones least cut out for the Internet.

You could certainly get him worked up!

So about 12 he is?

Dang, do I really act like a 24 yr old?!

It’s been over 6 weeks since I last cut my grass
Drought here and I’ve mowed grass twice since may

My judge friend that lives in western Tennessee said their artesian well/spring dried up for the first time in memory

He’s having to get water rights from a neighbor with a better spring and having to pay to have a pipeline run to his property

Not gonna lie, I thought Jughead was a fūkxwit, but that doesn't mean I wish he came to any harm.

Members come and go.
Dallas is an example of both interpretations of that....

Good afternoon fellas.

Life lesson learned on my Heavy Chevy last week with a dead battery. Put a jump box on it and just cranked and cranked. Pulled and checked fuses, just cranked. After an hour she finally lite up. Engine service light, trans not shifting right, and acceleration was weak. After an hour runtime it cleared up. Changed out the battery today and put a powered hot box into the OBDII connector. Swapped out the $280 battery and no errors or issues. I think I'll keep these in the glove box. Thank you General. Way to keep it interesting. LOL
