Well I got to find out at just what point the monty tips at. Ok so here's what happened, I was driving down a long dirt driveway barely wide enough for the monty, from one of the job sites we are at when i came accross another car, I started to go around it not noticing the dropoff where I was headed with it being covered in brush, well anyway I dropped sideways down the ledge and the uphill wheels started to lift off the ground and I felt myself starting to go over, then I cut the wheel downhill and stepped on the gas and down came the other side as I went barreling down the hillside, I stopped and let my heart slow down but when I went to get back on the road it took 4lo with the locker locked to get there, now I wish someone was taping it all, oh well. I must say though the monty leaned way further than I thought it would before starting to go.
