Have you ever driven over your $500 saw? I thought I did today. I was in a farmer's field cutting up some bulldozed ash trees. I finished up, loaded up the saws, gas can, b & c oil, and equipment box. I got in the truck, fired it up and drove off. The rear tire of my truck immediately went up and over something laying on the ground...and my heart sunk. Could that have been my new Husqvarna? I swore I put it in the bed of the truck...but did I? I threw the truck in park, tore out of the cab and ran around to look at...I worried...the smashed remains of my new XP.
Lucky for me it was a log that had rolled under my tire when I was loading. Whew!! As a habit, I never leave my saws laying on the ground but rather set them on the hood of my truck reminding me what I need to load up before I leave. In my heart I knew I didn't run over my saw...but I couldn't see it in the bed from the driver seat...and with my new saw I am very protective of it...but alas I have it for another day.
Has anyone out there ever driven over their saw before?
Safe cutting.
