Tom,

The Husky 262 pulls a 20" bar. With good power.
I just bought a 371 XP and running a 24" bar.
The power output is good, but the bar oil
is just not pumping like the 262. I think
the EPA has forced the saw companies to cut
back on the amount of oil going on the ground.

My thoughts are, more oil won't hurt anything
(on my saw) less is going to affect the performance.

They start good in a tree, unlike my 036.

Cost: 371XP($515) and a 3120XP($750)
Package deal.
