What would you prefer? Jonsered 2171 or a Husky 371 with high top and clamp style intake?

 Have a trade offer for my 2171 for a 371. I just dont know if I want a 371 with new seals, carb rebuild etc. I know my 2171 is solid and ready to go.

He likes red saws and not fond of the orange mixing in with his red ones. Me I dont care one way or another.

Hard to prefer either for me as they are so much alike. I've got a couple of each. Some guys are pretty hung up on the handle angle of one or the other. I go back and forth between Jonnys and Huskys all the time and never really notice it.

Trade wise, why trade a known quanity for an unknown one? Plus you should have at least one Red on the roster. 

Finding used parts will always favor the Husky, as it outsells the Jonny 10 to 1; even in an area like mine where Jonsered still has some market presence. In some areas Jonsered is practically non existent, making it almost impossible to fnd use parts.

Oh I did keep the 2171. http://chainsawrepair.createaforum.com/jonsered/jonsered-2171-2165-2071-questions/   I was thinking like Spike said. I know mine is good.

I did hear jonsereds are assembled by hand wich give them a better quality...does somebody ever hear that?

LOL - Same production line, at the Husky factory.......

Ok,only the color make them faster.....lol

Proper handle angle for racing purposes makes them red ones  faster.
