For light-duty yard work, this is what I use: ECHO . Had a much bigger Poulan and it was just too heavy.

The one on the far left is a hoss of a saw...

It is a Wright 5hp cross cut saw "no chain"! It will wear the average man out in less than 5 mins.! It wears me out just to start the darn thing.
I use it to cut down Black Jack Trees because you dont have to worry about ruining the chain when the water from them runs out on it. First time I used it I was cutting down a Black Jack next to a fence line and I accidentally cut through one of my Steel T Post! I never even knew that I had did it untill the tree fell and I noticed the post swinging back and forth on the barb wire. Ooops!

I have an 075 Pioneer! It's a beast! 21 inch bar and is very heavy. You might want to wear chain saw pants with this bad boy! (were chain saw pants anyways!)

I had a Pioneer of some kind 10-12 years ago. I used it for a week then I think that I traded it for that Spartan in the pic. The Pioneer was just to heavy to be lifting over my head when topping a tree. Waist level down cut was great though... Didn't even have to force it through an once. Just let the weight of the saw cut it.
