The day has finally come

Checking my dealer portal yesterday and the 395’s have been discontinued (at least from the Blythewood distribution warehouse) in South Carolina.

“I know what I got” begins.

Well I have heard this for a few years.............

 

[Bill G]

Good thing I stocked up........

I'm glad the 592 has been a worthy replacement.

Bilgie cornering the market.

You have to buy when things are available. I remember when new 044's were $575 plus $40.25 in tax. That was at the same time John Lambert was selling new 088's for $999 and new 090AV's for $1299.

I never bought any.

I am sure once all these are smashed or just plain worn out that is what will replace them.

Actually by then I am sure Husky will have went to something different.

By the time those 395's are worn out,

The Swedes will have designed a 90 cc hybrid gas and solar powered saw that plugs into a solar track suit. Yes it will still be a brightly colored track suit that is cut-resistant.

They will have added a half dozen more unnecessary cuts to fall a tree.

These futuristic 90 cc saws will only come with 16" .325 bars.

Yes, they will still be listening to 90's techno.

I will be kicking myself soon when the Echo 1201 is no longer available.

 

[Yukon Stihl]

I keep hoping to free up the $$$ for a 1201 too.

I just think back to when John was selling all the 090AV's and I did not buy a single one. It is even sadder he did not keep one for himself either. A good number of years ago I found a great gentleman in Europe that could get new OEM 090 shoe clutches and the FG-2 bench mount file unit. I ordered a couple of each and they were just as he said they would be. I then started ordering (10) clutches and (6) file units at a time to save on shipping. I traded them to many folks on another site. When I was running low on inventory I ordered more.

I thought the well would not dry up.................well it went dry and I do not have any for myself.

I really should buy one of those oe 372xp if they are still available, not to use but as a mantle piece. I'll use my dirty rat rod saws for what little work I do....

Just got one last week. Not sure why I haven't gotten a few more. I guess cuz my 572 is a worthy replacement.
