BB.. You take trying to "convert" others to your line of safety too serious. Sorta like stock market anaylist telling others what to buy..If you really want to help the older tractor group, I suggest a different approach.. TALK ABOUT THOSE DRIVING HABITS THAT ARE BAD and can lead to the final use of a ROPS.. Help them BEFOR they need a ROPS because the old tractor group doesn't like even the wrong color of paint or wrong decals if the factory didn't make it (..and they sure didn't build ROPS back then)Sooooo get more in line with what they are more inclined to use..

It just may be better to be killed dead rather than half saved by a rops and stay crippled for years. So what if ya got seatbelts and air bags..its still the loose screw behind the steering wheel at 80mph that is the highest risk factor. R
