Sure would be neat if you could demo one so we could get some real feedback. You have a 200 and the new 338 to compare to dont you?

Yes I could demo all 3. But geez I have so many saws as it is. I'm gonna have to cull the herd soon.
I'm working my tree service right through this winter so will have plenty of oppurtunity to get a hold of a T540XP. I just bought a complete winter outfit from Husqvarna to keep me warm.
The dealer has no interest in putting a new 540 out for a demo seeing I'm the only arborist in the area.

Nothing like cornering the market.   Not meaning that in a bad way like it means on the stock market.

 :)When I used to have competition they complained my 0ne man operation was a unfair advantage and I did'nt charge enough.

I  would reply to them, " Thanks to you for not being able to do the high level of difficulty jobs, I get them and make the big bucks" ;D

But I have to add to my last post, that in my corner of northern Manitoba that my business covers [ 30,000 square miles]. There is only a little over 30,000 people. The biggest of 3 towns only having a pop of 15,000.
Lots of trees [all trees ] between each town and lots of highway driving. We have a huge cottage country up here which gives me lots of work.

But as some say an arborist needs about 40,000 population in an area to be profitable.  So I quess I'm doing OK with what I got. ;)

Appears the T540xp is for sale in the UK.  http://www.worldofpower.co.uk/husqvarna-t540-xp-37-7cc-petrol-x-torq-14-top-handle-chainsaw.html   


Maybe 2012 for North America. Dont hold your breath though.   ;)

Maybe Spike has some news shortly - I was told he was at a meeting with Husky again?

If I tried to do that, I'd have a few parts left over when I put it back together.

560xp shown in pieces part by part.  8) 8) 8)

I just watched that one - same saw as I have!  ;D

...but mine haven't been stripped down like that - he also posted some vids from the woods, that likely will turn up when you have looked through that vid....
