It's for eating up the precious little space in my garage. Which is why I didn't get one.

I always thought the reason for a stinger was so if you rolled sideways you had a better chance of being able to drive away if the radiator stayed in tact.... I can see there are other advantages after watching that video....

They are designed to prevent pitch-poling (going end over end) when descending a steep grade.

All I have to say about this issue is that ALL of you have it wrong!

It's primary use is for hauling elk off a mountain.

Yes, it was a dark drive down that mountain, with hand-held flashlights held out the window to light the way.
