    I’ve had mine for eight months now it is a game changing Saw i’ve ran it when it was 90° and as low as 10° and it has performed flawless stihl actually recommends up to a 36 inch bar I have one but have not tried it on it yet

    Great addition to your other chainsaws! In a future video you should do a comparison between the 372 and the 500i. The 500i looks to be a great purchase for your firewood business!

    • @OldSchoolMillennial
      @OldSchoolMillennial  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      That's a great idea. I have been thinking the same thing. I'm really interested to see how they compete against each other, especially since the 372xpw is ported. I think it will be a good contest. Stay tuned!

    YAAASSS. So exciting! That light bar probably cost more than 2 of my little saws. So happy for you.

    • @brianrizzi6321
      @brianrizzi6321 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      From what I’ve watched the 462 may be faster than the 500i. I got the 500i and wouldn’t give it up.

    @stannelson2582 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Now that’s some serious freedom. How many cords did you cut split stack pick up again and sell to save for that thing. I did not know there was enough trees in Texas to even justify a saw like that. Lol. Congrats it’s an amazing add to the arsenal

    • @OldSchoolMillennial
      @OldSchoolMillennial  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      There are still a few trees left here in Texas after buying this saw. Haha

    Roughly what did it cost in your area?

  • @joesalazar770
    @joesalazar770 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The 500 I is the same as a turbo charged saw exception 9f spool up the power is not comparable. I would put my money on the 500 I over a suped up saw it's running about a 6. 7. Horsepower head.

    Weak clutch bearing. Mine ate a well greased bearing in 12wks. I’m buying them 3-4 at a time. Compared to running on Aspen, replacing a clutch bearing every 10-12wks is hardly anything.

    My issues with it: price.

      This isn't new technology and mechanics are familiar with it because it's the exact engine Stihl puts in their concrete saws.
