    Same, my needs don't currently warrant a full size nor do I need the room inside or out in the near future. I did have a F150 rental last year while getting my CRC and it was decent but I did see the needle drop fast.

    And that's bull..you're never really done with a vehicle.

    love my Redmax 7500. professional grade and has been trouble free for the 4 years I’ve had it.

    we lost a pretty big tree behind the barn, luckily it fell in the opposite direction.

    The 800 is a monster and is the "hot thing" on the lawnsite forum for blowers.

    Depends on how big of stuff and heavy a cleanup you are doing. If you do big clean ups or have a lot of leaves, go big. If you are just regular joe homeowner with a few trees, you could probably save a few hundred and get a model similar to your old one.

    I use their larger battery powered one and it does like 99% of what I would want.

    Interesting. I doubt mine is that smart. It's a Quadrafire 1200i Insert from 2008. I bought it second hand for cheap and put new blower motors into it and it runs great.

    Sounds like an 800 needs to be acquired. I know there are some good competitors, but I like Stihl products, I feel confident in them and don't ever worry about them running.

    buy the stihl oil or a case of premix with the purchase and it doubles the warranty. I have 2 of their chainsaws, hedge trimmers, and weed whacker, would 100% recommend.

    I get people that want to borrow my br420 and say they have mix gas. I quickly reply take my mix and do not use anything else.
    I had the 420 in the shop they put a new coil and pulley on it and cleaned the carb. Guy couldn’t start it on 2 different occasions with me present but said he just had it running before I got there. It would start intermittently before I needed the coil. I’m no mechanic so kinda at the point that I need a new one.
    I believe I bought it all of 15 years ago maybe.

    Yes but alcohol removes your wax too. Just keep that in mind.

    I do too. I have an old 026 that I rarely use, but every single time I need it it starts right up and runs perfectly.

    WD40 is awesome for use as a spray cleaner. It's best use. I call it expensive, spray kerosene.
