    I'm one of those city slickers with the saw all tucked away dry in the back of the subaru outback.

    Thanks all. I haven't really worried about my saws getting wet since points were replaced in favor of solid state but I wanted to be sure. I do have to pull the bar off and scrape it out more often esp if I have to rip. I guess the combo of oil and water gets a little sticky. Cutting floating logs sure does clean a saw up nicely too!

    Around here the road salt would eat the saw in short order.

    Why not go to Wally world and get a cheap plastic storage bin and bungee cord for less than $20. They make them big enough to fit several big saws.

    I keep my saws in the garage or in the extended cab part of the truck. If im pulling my pickup bed trailer for firewood I have a plastic bed box mounted on the tongue that I can fit 3 saws in their case, or 4 without cases. Quality chainsaws cost a lot, and I'm going to take as good care of my tools as possible. Just my .02
