They say that I dont want to do that . I told them I had my reasons to get the CG as low as possible . I told them I have a lot less chance for roll overs and tip over end over end . As they took there rigs up the sides of hills and roll over . While I take mine on the side of the hill and it would not roll . It would slip or slide like they would do but wont roll over .
