Pure unadulterated BS. If that were an actual line of rational thinking, then every single one of us should sell our cars and drive a Cadillac, Buick, Mercedes or BMW.

IMHO, we're all just fooling ourselves with any choice (none, one or two roll bars). G-d forbid, but the probabilities are side, front or rear impact, not rollovers.

But what if his wife won't ride in the car with him unless there's a roll bar on her side as well? Shouldn't he at least ask her whether or not that's important to her? Or should he not care?

Steve, that sentiment has been echoed time and time again. RodKnock is just being obstinate.

I am only steadfast in my view that if there are "special people" that will be sitting in that other seat that they should at least be given the chance to say "I would like a roll bar too, please."
