I think you are generalizing a bit when you say that the consensus is that WF's are safer on hills.

This topic seems to come around regularly every 28 days like some other things. I try not to get involved anymore but I think the consensus is that the NF's are as safe on hills as WF's. "Safe" is all in the head of the driver.

I grew up on a NF Farmall M here in our hills. We used a loader to clean a large heifer barn and toaroads. We got that NF M and loader in 1946 and used it until 1990; never an accident or even close to it. And I'm talking some hilly country.

Keep the rear wheels wide, the tires loaded, use weights, and just THINK.
