Default More power!!

I have been looking to upgrade my saw for cutting firewood, and finally found one! I got this on Craigslist, Stihl MS290 Farm Boss, 56 cc. It came with Stihl chaps, Stihl synthetic oil for the mix and 2 gallons of bar oil. The saw is only three months old, and used for an hour. This thing is a beast! It blows through the firewood logs like nothing!
