    I have a Husqvarna R25 made in 11986 still going strong it is a commercial weed trimmer. And i would not trade it for anything on the market right now it stats on the first pull and has never lost power.

    Hey just want to say i love your videos. I bought a 525L and a 525LST because of your recommendations. Truth to power you were right! Best power to weight ratio out on the market. I do a lot of weed abatement in rural southern California. So i make a a lot of dust scalping acres and acres of dry country.
    My filters get clogged on the daily. I blow the dust outta the filters with an air hose every morning. Just wanted to give you a heads up since i pop my filters in and out so often. You installed your filter backwards in the beginning of the video. The filter has a flush side, and a side with a lip that tapers for a snug fit into the intake housing. You installed it with the lip side out. Thats why your housing didn't set right when you were thumb screwing it on. Keep that puppy running another 10 years and flip it.
    Anyways i love your style, and if i lived closer to you I'd come and trim hours a day with ya. Keep on whipper whipping!

    If you want to dislocate your shoulder and get a one arm workout, go with Echo. After 2-5 uses they would either flood but just wouldn't start. I spent more time troubleshooting them than actually using them. Both went back to HD and I now have a Husky.

    My first trimmer was a husqvarna back in the late 90's it was stolen out of my garage,
    I just threw down for a 525lst mark ii and a 336fr
    But one thing I look for when buying a husqvarna is the metal plate attached with two rivets that say "Husqvarna Sweden" because those as my first one have the best quality in my opinion
    I use Stithl at work and I am not impressed

I lucked up and bought a riding husqvarna 54 inch cut with 16hrs on it for 600..the deal was 1000.00...hes my best friend saw i was catching it!!! So he said "we good" dudes in good shape actually bought a brand new zero turn cash! Im sorry i dont have it like that!! Anywho i need another bigger blower i cut five yards all elderly ppl...i dont charge nowhere near enough but it helps them. So to it...bt150 USED at the pawnshop..200.00 its tge older version. I saw that the older one has red tab near the carburetor thd newest ones are blue ?.the blower at the pawnshop looks new! Last two of the yards are i guess 1.5 acres ? Kinda big? Can the 150 handle it?? Will it give me three years if i got a new one??i used a stihl commercial blower that was power! And not the biggest blower they make its the smallest commercial grade..but its strong..i dunno ive dranked several..😂
