I generally find that a circular saw works well on small trees.

The drivers side rims and tyres are shagged as they hit the medium stip, blew the fron tyre right out and the rear has a huge bubble in the wall. from the marks id say lucky it did not roll. still only a car and they can be fixed. |

 : as long as you can walk away...On another point raised earlier about air bags, there was a report recently in the Canberra Times where an air bag went off on a blokes ute. Apparently scared the beejesus out of him. Ford sent up a rep to inspect the vehicle but it is reported there was no body damage anywhere. Have not seen a thing about this since the original article. |
