Rusty I know exactly what you are saying.I was one of those guys.Having farmed for 20yrs.in the flat parkland of Sask.then taking a job in the Rocky Mnts.of British Columbia.We bought a small acerage and leased more mountain land to run some cattle on.One day I was going up this mountain road to drag fire wood with my Super M.Well the road was covered in fist sized rocks and about a 10% grade. With the "M" in second gear going up hill with no load the rear wheels started to spin out alternatly and the front wheels bounced to the edge of the road and the r/h front wheel hanging out over the bank.I coudn't go ahead or back then on trying to inch the tractor back with the l/h brake applied the rocks rolled under the rear wheels and the tractor started to go over the bank on the r/h side I rode it till the l/h raer wheel was 12" off the road then jumped off over that tire on to the road.Before leaving I killed the ignition switch.The tractor rolled 4 tmes down the 50'bank.I wasn't hurt but if I would have had a RPOS on the tractor I would have less to repair.
