Have a crowbar handy. It's known to be useful in a variety of situations, including a literal space alien assault.

But also don’t leave it loose in your vehicle. A crowbar hitting your head in a car accident does not sound like a good time.

Better than a gnome rattling around in the car.

True. But I fail to see the relevance.

As others mentioned, it is an achievement from Half Life episode 2. Player has to carry a garden gnome to the end of the game. Which is not too bad, minus the extensive driving sections (sometimes under fire) where the gnome is bouncing around the vehicle.

It is a fun feather in your cap, but definitely not suitable for a first run through of the game.

A small charge of C4 works wonders. Just be sure to lay your head over in the passenger seat before detonation.

I carry a small hatchet in the trunk of my car with the spare tire just for this reason.

We're gonna need a source on that one.
