My dad's been asking for a chainsaw for a while so I figured I'd get him one for his birthday.
Needs:
Something thats easy to start, he's over 60
Something "that the damned ethanol won't eat through easily"
He's had this specific model or a model similar to it for years: http://www.amazon.com/Poulan-P4018WT-18-Inch-2-Cycle-Powered/dp/B002XH9LD0
He said he liked it but the ethanol ate the lines up and he tried to fix it but couldn't get it working
He might use this thing 10 times a year on limbs, maybe a tree but I'd like to get him something a little nicer than what he had. I don't know anything about chainsaws beyond they cut wood but I'd like to keep under $400 if possible.
Any tips, advice, or questions are welcome.
