I was at the hardware store/dealer in town yesterday.. There were 8 new in boxes 372s for the CDF up here getting ready to go with 24" bars... It was like looking at Christmas for those guys..... Man oh man i wanted to be on that list! Oh well ...... Must be nice.
The shop guy there says they will burn them out in two to three years brushing up here. I just can't imagine buying those to just to throw them away in 2-3 years. Kills me .

Wonder what they do with those burned out saws? That could be a good list to get on, a recipient of two year old burned out saws.

I have heard that BEFORE , BEFORE, BEFORE
Sorry I just had to do that. I think this is about the 4th to 5th time the 372's are going to be gone.

I like mine with the half wrap and small dawgs for the sleeper look. If you look in the avatar the 375 is being raced.

I guess they burn them up pretty regular by adjusting them to run lean and fast. After 2-3 rebuilds in as many years, they buy new. Not to mention the more regular repairs they have done. Once they hit replacement cost of the saw I guess, they buy new. They also run 24" bars on them... So they run fast on the smaller bar and that helps cook them too. Sounds like a waste to me... but so does a lot of gov. type spending. I still need look into what they are doing with the old ones.

It would pay for some of us to get ahold of them & rejug them since they don't make them anymore...

I know once I find out what they do with them, and if I can find at least one, she gonna get a going through and revamped. I would really like one of those 372s... would fit in right nicely in my stable
