Im an not advocating against safety equipment. I am advocating against clone/poser/wannabe, which this thread is clearly about (as the title already lets onto). Safety equipment that is capable of actually saving ones life is very expensive. Something that doesn't entrap or impale the people inside the vehicle. I have not seen 1 LMTV roll over by driving within the safe parameters of the vehicle and with a properly maintained vehicle. That includes speed, approach angle off terrain. and plain common sense.I've just never heard anyone advocate against safety equipment for an off-road application in a non-ironic fashion before. I think my outlook is more the roll cage is more impractical than it is unwarranted or undesired. I sure desire one. Stuff happens. Especially in snow.
But I don't care what anyone does to their vehicle. Nor do I argue about it online. It was asked here if I also secretively dream of installing a clone/poser/wannabe piece of equipment in my truck and I said that it never even remotely was something I had the urge to do. (see my earlier responses, in case of confusion).
I am for safety. Drive with a distance. Drive the speed limit and drive the safe speed of the vehicle. Know how to stop and how long it takes. maintain your vehicle. Learn how to operate it in all conditions and practice all of that, which was learned.
