Funny thing about roll bars, we never think we need them until we
roll, 30 years ago on Valentines day I went and picked up a hot
little babe for a Valentines day date, went up in the mountains and
promptly off the road upside down. We were both fine but shaken up
quite a bit after a roll and a hafl with the car stopping on its
side. Took about 2 months to get the car back from the body shop,
went to pick up that hot babe for another date and her father said
"no way you are taking my daughter out in that thing until you put a
roll bar on it, Bap-Geon has one with your name on it and here is the
money for it, bring it by tomorrow and we will install it" and he
gave me his car to use that evening.
With a dad like that I married the girl, still have her and still
have the car. We laugh about how we rolled the car before the roll
bar was put on and have never rolled the car after.
Moral of this story, as you said, be happy you are alive and put
that rollbar on so you don't roll the car over ever again.
