The local HD was having a Pro+ contractor event. Door prizes, free lunch, etc. I ended up winning 2nd place door prize, which was a new DeWalt Recip saw.
I have a Milwaukee Sawzall that does everything I need, so I don't need another one. First place was a Hitachi Coil siding nailer… I wouldn't have minded a spare one of those! (Bought mine last summer).
So, the Mgr said I could swap the DeWalt out for store credit on something else. Looks like about $90 worth of credit. I'm not sure what to get.
I went and browsed over the chainsaws to see what they had. I have an Echo 12" CS-3000 (30cc) which I use all the time and a old Craftsman 18" 3.7cu model, that I have not started in 15+ years. I figured I might get something a bit beefier than the 12" Echo. Their largest model was 18" Echo (40cc) and a 18" Poulan (42cc). It seems to me that with a bar that long, you might want more than 40-ish ccs.
So, I'm still undecided. Don't need a circular saw, or grinder or anything like that.
What would you get for $90 store credit?
