I learned to carry a small battery-powered chain saw in the trunk. Makes dropping the car out of the branches a little easier.  The silver maples aren't very strong and the car usually drops by itself. It's the oak trees that are hardest to cut out of. Peggy gets a bit irritated and has begun to backhand me when this happens. But the best thing is that it all adds to the 'patina' thing.
Seriously though, I do tend to grip the wheel firmly while driving. I have endured a few surprise jolts because of road irregularities. Bumping up the air pressure helps reduce the hunting while street driving.
