No bad experiences with Dewalt, quite the opposite in fact, the average age of my tools are probably 10 years old, they just make great stuff that lasts.

When it comes to saws, I've just always had a better feel for the Milwaukee eqpt. Probably cause it's what I cut my teeth on in contracting and tool rental, and they weren't that great when they first came out. Honestly, I've put those more miles on the Milwaukee stuff than all my tools combined, with the exception of my cordless drill (Dewalt). They've always had better balance, precision, and reliability than everything else I've used.

It's really a personal preference, if you're comfortable with the Dewalt, keep it. Reliability and performance wise, you wont go wrong with it. Some guys like Ford, some like Chevy.
