Or you could just let the tree fall over and take the stump with it.

If it should be removed, what implement should I buy?

Try an electric chain saw (that you intend to return to Home Depot when you're done), a long rope across your back yard, up the side of the house and tied to the axle of a 1996 Honda Accord... and a neutral drop.

I tried it once... it didn't work. But might work for you if you've used a chain saw before...

Explosives: fertilizer, diesel and dynamite.

And a Komatsu 575.

Bruce, that splitting with explosives is spectacular! I never would have thought of that. I'm always amazed at human ingenuity!
Thanks,

Remember when I was young working in the woods, old timers talking about a powder wedge, can't remember what for or how it was used? :

I meant to post this clip. Talk about being at the right place at the right time.
