Even when you do, the trunk of a car or a small utility trailer should be sufficient.Let's say you needed a pickup once a month to haul some really big, heavy items.

If you have woodworkers in your area who want maple slabs you may be able to sell the trunk in pieces for some worthwhile money.Maybe try fishing in the woodworking forums, (will be cutting old maple on x/x/xxxx open to all offers for the wood) plus a pic of the tree and one of it's green leaves.Some of these guys will drive quite a way to get their precious slabs (which the turn into bars and tables and etc, and sell to well off people as custom made furniture).They like parts best where limbs grow out of the trunk (the grain is different).I've not done this, but I have seen it done.Good Luck!

Probably mid 40's.I had not thought of that crash for many years as it was about 46 Years ago.. also on the way home for the Bay Area BP members we were driving over Hwy 17 back to San Jose and got pulled over.. we thought we were nabbed.. but it was just a traffic violation also there I am in the back seat leg torn up and bleeding cop never said a word :)     Some room mates of mine from Chicago thought it would be fun to drive around the business districts with a person in the trunk with a leg sort of dangling out under the trunk door held down with a bungee. 

Seattle will not let you cut a tree, even on your own property if the trunk is larger than 6". 

I just had to tell a tenant that their lawn service girdled the trunk of my young tree with their weed whacker and killed it.

With any luck he'll go full tranny soon and any potential buyers will be looking nervously for the trunk where he keeps the gimp.

When I moved from the West coast to the East coast a few years ago, I had the rule if it didn't fit in the trunk of my car, I didn't bring it with me.

Count the trees, get an average of the trunk diameter.
