Guy from my shop towed it about 3 weeks ago. His wife rolled it going too fast around a corner. Single vehicle wreck.

haha yeah he's best off just selling parts. It's going to darn near impossible to sell a rolled montero for any price.
He must have really been moving to do that much damage. Heck I flipped mine on it's side and you can't even tell except for some roadrash on the passenger A-pillar

She must have done something wrong, like driven off the road because she couldn't hold the turn or something. I don't know if you could flip a montero just be going around a turn with a reasonable speed(not 100mph around a stop sign )

I could see it happening if the sway bar links are broken or broke during the turn. driving without mine attached makes it a whole new beast, which is why I am going to just fab up my own disconnects later down the road.

Someone told me that these cars did not pass a crash test roll-over safety inspection, or some some such thing.
I told them to read the instructions on the visor.
