So, dont take this as being rude, or what have you. But i dont understand the purpose of this saw. What does it do that the mt55 cant?
Im assuming that its not a plunge saw, and that it can be used a regular circular saw, and i see those advantages, but i dont understand why you wouldn't just use a miter saw. Maybe with framing it would be a beast as you would have consistently square cuts without using a speed square to keep you square?
Im about a week away from buying the mt55, but maybe this is more for me and i just dont realize it?
Again, not trying to be a rude jerk, im just ignorant and need some schooling.
Thanks in advance, Will

Well I found you are like me (which is unlikely) then you do a bit of everything. So a Highlander approach of only one saw makes sense.
The MT55 does do the sheet stuff well. I thought a carpenter type would gravitate towards th e KSS? It is like a debating a Porsche versus a 4x4 for dropping off the kids and doing the shopping for my typical use. I was not getting both saws.

The Porsche (MT55)... but lately have been doing permapine and concrete board. If you are a lfellow that doesn't mind a leash (cord) and does more cabinetry, then the MT55 seems ideal. If you like batteries and roof tops, or deck work, then the MT would be second choice. But I am doing a deck next.

I already did that. Was just looking for some real world feedback from folks that have possibly used both. BTW, that is hilarious. Truly made my day, and honestly, is probably what I needed most. I need to learn how to do that for when folks like myself ask stupid questions. Will
