Obviously I didn't know him, but my thoughts and prayers are with his family.
And, I guess I will reconsider taking the seat belt off on the rough roads. Guess it is a little more dangerous than I thought being on the trail.

WOW, that sucks. Best of wishes to the family. I all too often see (even in magazines) people wheelin without their seat belts or rock crawlin without helmets! Dont you guys ever pound your heads on the cage? OUCH!

my belts are just factory, but i always wear them on and off the road. imo, it would be really unpleasant and hard to drive offroad without a belt holding me in place.
it's not good that he died, but at least something good can come of it; reminding everyone to be safe.

I wear my belt all the time.. and if a passenger gets in withoug clicking.. I dont move.... they are an adult and have an opinion... but opinions are left outside the truck as there is no reasoning in my domain!!!! 
I recently went wheelin with a friend and rode in his truck for a while with him. 83 4 door long bed on military axles with front a rear steer, pretty cool rig but no seat belts in the back seat. I never really thought that much about wearing a seat belt while wheelin till we hit a bump so hard that I flew up and hit my head on the cab. I hit my head hard enough to give me a terrible headache and if I would have had my tongue out I would have bit it off. That was enough to scare the crap out of me and I got out and back into my truck and the seat belt was the first thing to go on.
I've seen several people roll their trucks without seatbelts on and they have all been lucky (so far 
)
Nobody expects to roll, it usually happens quick.
