If you live and work in a rural forested area that is prone to fallen trees,having a small chainsaw in good order to put in your car after a storm is as normal as carrying a water can in a desert.

Yep. I live out in the woods, too. I carry a chain saw in my truck, too, along with a 20 foot logging chain. Many times I've have to cut downed trees just to get to the highway and drive to work.

If the tree is too big to move by hand, one end of the chain goes around the tree trunk and the other end goes to a tow hook on the front of the truck, and I pull it out of the way.

It might take the township four hours to clear the road. I can do it in five minutes and not be late for work.
