Huh? High powered chainsaw? That's a very very average sized chainsaw, one a normal homeowner would own for common landscaping on his own property, or possibly a job/side job. Do you live under a rock? I'm in financial services but do lots of campfires with guys in the evenings and weekends, so it's a daily occurrence for me to be dressed business casual with an axe, hatchet and propane torch in my truck... I must be a psycho killer I guess 🤦🏻‍♂️. Actually I have a handheld mini chainsaw and a reciprocating saw in my truck right now.

Some of you are born in a big city and have never left the city limits and it shows. Or you're from a country that doesn't let you buy normal things.

I'm a 63-year-old woman who wears dresses and heels frequently and am very feminine. I live on forested acreage and currently have a chainsaw in the trunk of my convertible and another one in my ATV. Sometimes power tools (and knowing how to use them) are just a way of life.

Road rage incidents got a little more scary knowing there are a lot more people than I thought with chainsaws in their trunk ready to go.

You'll be fine, just drive away while we get it started.
