Why are JD 1025 ROPS taller then all others in class?

All of this protection assumes the operator is wearing the seatbelt.. I don't... ever. Maybe should, but don't.

That's a storage position, not operational. I'm not sure it would have any effect at all in a rollover, rather than just shearing the pins and collapsing.

Should have a 45 degree locking position. Think that would allow it to go underneath the doors and get a bit more protection.
