Most definitely! And I'll have the money to get a lift, so I can actually go over the fallen trees instead of around them

It looks like an S10 bastard pack is what I'm going to be doing. Always need a good excuse for new tools, and this time it's some sort of cordless cutting thing. I can only get one, so should I use a grinder or sawzall to get the leaf springs off of the S10 in the junkyard?
