Which saws dominate your Taco’s 3rd Gen bed?

These battery operated saws are great to have on a trail as well if it’s just brush to clear.

 

I only have a bunch of 2nd Gen saws so I guess I cannot play.

 

Pioneer? Poulan? Or going balls to the wall with a Mac Kart? Bender Kart?

 

I hope Mr. H don’t mind. But this is me fave picture. Mac Kart top end. And guess what kind of truck does he have?

2016 Orange Taco OR!

 

Hear hear. I use a saw for demolition. Makes for quick work.

 

Sure does! The GAS and charge might run out!

 

I used to own Dolmars too. But downsized, lol.

what’s nice about the mtronic and such, is say, you take your Taco to high elevations on a trail, and if you hit a snag, the autotune will automatically adjust the tune to the altitude.

but like you, I like to tune manually.

 

upgrade to the Fiskars 36” wood splitting maul. It has a sledgehammer on the opposite end.

 

I just got my one little 2 gallon dolmar. I usually operate around 8-10k elevation so once I’ve “tuned” it for where I’m cutting it’s usually good for the day or weekend I’m cutting

 

Nobody asked but I recently picked up a Kelly dandenong on a 31” hickory with an orange Osage wedge - just want to show it off haha. I also have a 6lb maul but I hardly have a use for it anymore since I got this.

 

You sponsored by Husky or just personal choice?

 

Ahahaaa, I just saw this one. Well, I wasn’t that rufeless. I was thinking about this one instead!

 

That’s a good strong handle by the looks of the grain direction to the blows.

 

No, just a personal preference for the 3120 and 346. But overall, they seem a bit more friendly to work on compared to the Stihls.

 

Yes, high elevation can cause tuning issues for sure.

 

So far haven’t had issues and I’ve been running about 45:1. Saw seems to like it over 50:1

 

Today’s oils are very well engineered. I do 50:1

Which reminds me! I haven’t been driving much because of Covid(since it started) and a fight with cancer last summer(pretty much an entire year). But all the Taco’s change of motor oil intervals have been on time, and not because of mileage.

I just logged into the Toyota site, and the last oil change was on 08/30/21 at 18,098.

I thought I was at 22,000 miles, but after taking a drive yesterday to see pops, it just turned over 21,000 miles when I got back. Anyway, what I hope is that water is not collecting in the pan from just sitting. I recently checked the dip stick and it looked good in color and level.

I plan on changing the front differential oils at 30,000 miles as I haven’t wheeled the truck as much as the others in the past.

 

I'm old school and can't see myself switching my gas stihl for an electric.

 

In British Columbia, west coast loggers pronounce Stihl, "still" not "steel"... just sayin'.
