Can't say I zapped the old berries. But I have taken a few zaps. Thought I was getting stung by wasps!!

Dealer ordered me a 201t for comparison to the fleet of 200ts we currently have. I hope I'm not disappointed...
 
Actually I have had the Jonsered for over a year. It has seen some good use. I just keep my saws clean. I suffer from a minor OCD when it comes to my gear and tools. Every weekend the saw gets blown out, wiped down and so on. They are expensive tools so I like to make sure they keep making me money with as little down time as possible. I know it may seem weird, but that's me.

If the maintenance doesn't pertain to maintaining good compression I'm not that interested!
 
IMG_0356.jpg Here is mine. It get the job done. Starts on the 1-2 pull. Works grate trim jobs. it nice and light. I tock down a silver maple with it and it out ran my friends Stihl MS230( that saw was junk). I was going to do the tree for the saw but told him to keep and just pay for deer camp.
 
If it works for ya.....but somehow I don't see it fairing too well in the gladiator arena. I've had two of those in the early days. The better one left on a stump and smashed to smithereeens on a misguided fall.
 
I got no pics. But 3 running 200t's are in the line-up. I'm not to happy with their crap carbs though. Otherwise they're a kick ass saw.
 
All of you 200 fans myself included better get ahold of the last of the 200's being made because they are definately going to be phased out very soon. I know these rumors have been going on for a while now but I was checking on some parts at my dealer and he made a point to tell me the 200's are not going to be manufactured and of course are going to be replaced by the 201. He said something about that our regional Sthil distributor has only 400 left and they are going fast.

I have a new 200T on hold and am going to bite the bullet and see if I can get another rear handled 200 to go along with the new 200T. I don't know where all the money is going to come from but I'll dig it up some how. Maybe I'll rob a gas station over the weekend:lol::lol:
 
I just bought the "extra" 200T for the closet. I am debating the rear handle 200 just for shits and giggles. I think it is a no brainer considering they will be unavailable soon. On the other hand when I went looking for a MS 440 I got stuck with the 441, it rips.

200T here too, but I still use my little 192 on a lot of prune jobs.

I opted for the 16" bar on mine, a dealer up here is selling off his last 5 200T's for 449.00!!!!:O:O I'm buying another :/:8)
 
192T here. Don't have a pic right now. Thinking about grabbing a 200T, since they are going out. I'll have to call our dealer and see whats up.
