The STIHL MS 500i has been out for a few years now and I have ran a few of them in that time. Some say it is the best pro saw on the market. So today I am going to run a couple of tanks through one and give it a good workout! I was not disappointed at all, this saw is AWESOME! It cuts fast with nice power and sounds great while doing it! THE HYPE IS REAL!

My father was fluent in German and I asked him this very same question many years ago. Still or steel. He said it’s pronounced more closely to steel. “Schteal” in German. So kind of a hybrid of both. Happy Father’s Day !

Same here, but then again the American-tion of the pronunciation is to drop the H hence Stil. Now don’t ask Irene she calls it a chainsaw no matter who makes it to her that’s all it will ever be!, remember Chris your the one who says “I like it as long as it’s sharp and runs”….

Being German, I always found the American pronunciation - like steel or steal - way cooler... 🤔 But anyway, if you're interested in the German pronunciation, then yeah, it definitely starts with an "Sh"-sound, like schteal. It gets a little more tricky though when it comes to the vowels, since even in German there will be local differences. Speakers of standard High German will pronounce it with a very high i, like Schteel. But STIHL is a company (and Stihl is a family name) from Swabia in Southern Germany, where most speakers will pronounce the i more like in "still" (only looong, of course). They will also pronounce the t as d. Seen from that angle, there is no "correct" anyway and you might just as well forget about the whole issue. And maybe you better don't ask the Swedes about the allegedly "correct" pronunciation of Husqvarna. Just say husky, they will love it 😉

Good afternoon Chris!!😀😀 The 500i is a heck of a saw!! The proper pronunciation for Stihl is Steel. It the German pronunciation. Back in the 1980s at my old Stihl dealer in Berlin they had a display rack from Stihl that said right on it say Steel. That's why we pronounce it Steel. Happy Father's Day my friend!!😀😀💚💚 Logger Al

Yup, it is a great saw no doubt but for the pronunciation there are some German "experts" here that claim the Stihl family says it..."SCHTEAL" and others say Still, Steel and Schteel so now I am really cornfused!

I will never deny that the 500i is an awesome saw. I cannot justify the price tag. Could buy 2 saws for the price of it. Stihl dealers in my neck of the woods, never have a sale on pro saws. Big orange on the other hand, usually a big sale twice a year. 15-20% off and a cash discount. Show me a 500i for $1400, I'll be sure to own one. $1700+ retail in south west, PA area.

A Stihl 031 was my first chainsaw. It was a great saw buy my dealer started handling Jonsered and a 49SP was the same size saw but ran an 18" bar must faster than the Stihl so I switched to that, then got a Jonsred 910, That was a great saw.

Getting my first chainsaw this week, a Stihl 251C-BE. I grew up watching my dad saw with McCulloch's at our tree farm, but lost interest in the woods just about the time I was old enough (in his opinion) to be taught to use one. But I've taken a safety class, have my steel-toed boots, and ordered my chaps and helmet. We've got a couple of acres and they're mostly clear, but we've got 6-10 mature trees around the edges that need to come down this year or next (a big, dead maple, several ash trees the borers have gotten to, etc.). We'll have arborists bring 'em down for us, then I'll buck the trunks for firewood. I figure it'll take me, oh... the rest of the year? :) Love the channel and appreciate your no-BS style. Cheers!

Nice video Chris. Never ran a 500i or really wanted to. Too expensive for my budget but if you like it I’ll take your word for it. I call it STILL. All the big gas saws are living in fear of the batteries that are destined to steal their thunder. Honey Locust I have lots of experience with. Heavy with a capital H. Makes a sharp chain chatter. Noodled lots of it with just a 455Rancher but a lot slower. Not my favorite campfire wood unless I want to cook over it much later, then the bed of red coals lasts a long time. GNI

Around here there is probably 3 Stihl dealers to every 1 Husqvarna. One of the reasons I kinda prefer the Stihl. Dealers are everywhere and there is one within 5 miles of the house. The one main Husqvarna dealer here too is a real asshole. I still have some Husqvarna saws besides the Stihl, Echo, Makita, I have an old John Deere too and a couple ancient Homelites. There is a big box store here though that sells both brands and they have all the pro stuff but its a big box store would much rather deal with an actual dealer. There used to be a Jonsered dealer but I don't know if those are even sold anymore. I know there is the RedMax now maybe they replaced Jonsered I don't know but I have a RedMax as well and its just a red Husqvarna. There is one RedMax dealer I know of here but they have basically just mowers and trimmers not sure I ever seen a saw in there before but I am sure they could order one for you.

Having no idea how one deciphers stihl saw sizes from their model numbers I looked it up. So it is an 80cc saw. So I did a quick check of the specs against the oppositions offerings in the same size range. What I found really interesting is that Stihl only claim 5kw for the 500I, which is on par with the other brands 80cc saws. I would have thought the fuel injection would have given it quite the power boost over a carby model, but apparently not. Not sure why it is worth the $300 price premium.

Still more expensive than an equivalent Husqvarna.even more so once you start adding on aftermarket pieces like clutch covers. I think it would be great if Huskie redesigned their 572 clutch cover to mimic the chip performance of the 592. Still like my Stihl, Huskies and Echos.

The 500i is a great machine, but a bit fickle at times. It seems to prefer a very sharp chain, not too hungry, and a full load on it. A little hard on fuel, but it has power for days. I will say though, they’re really tough to run for limbing or munching brush, IME.

I have a 500i and one thing I have noticed is that it stretches the chains quickly. The chain becomes too long for the adjustment long before the sharpening reaches the lines. Is it just me?
@iffykidmn8170
@iffykidmn8170 Ай бұрын
The saw itself should not stretch the chain quicker than any other saw, perhaps not having an adequate length chain adjuster might be the cause is the adjuster binding bottoming out before reaching full travel?
@iffykidmn8170
@iffykidmn8170 Ай бұрын
Reason for asking is many moons ago I had similar situation with a different saw, the adjuster bolt was not threaded the full length and ran out of thread before running out of allowable travel.
