I know this isn't a tractor question but I figure there's enough loggers on this site that would know about chainsaws. We've been using Homelite XL12's for many years and they've been fine for our firewood cutting and general duty work. Now that we have about a dozen cords of oak laying on the ground (thanks to Hurricane Ivan) and some trees are pretty wide across the trunk, we need something bigger but can't afford a new saw. Years ago In Mississippi we had a couple friends that had Super Wiz 55's & 66's that were heavy but they would sure cut through a big trunk. I thought about looking for one of those but I don't see them for sale much. I've also seen Homelite "C5's" and "C9's" (or something similar) for sale in the local paper but never heard of those models. Does anyone know anything about these "C" models--engine size, bar sizes, weight etc. Were they lemons or good saws? Any recommendations on any other brands and models? The local power companies are using Huskys and Stihls but they also have plenty of money too...
