i agree and disagree. while the longer wheelbase makes it more stable at an
angle, it also decreases ground clearance indirectly through killing the
breakover angle. im curious jerry, at what point you consider longer
wheelbase to become a hindrance. a crew cab f350 has a lot more wheelbase
and would be very stable on a steep hill.....until you tried to break over
the top of it.
