Is the grille used to stop an M ??

The best way to stop an M is to use the brakes. If you use the grill, the stop is usually abrupt, and ruins the grill, and possibly other parts as well. Some folks from some parts of the country refer to that as a crash. Others refer to it as a wreck. Either way, brakes are a much smarter method, and endorsed by the manufacturer as the preferred method of bringing an M to a halt.

It was only a guess, I was going by the condition of the grille on every unrestored M I have ever seen around here, unless they are playing chicken when no one is looking.

Then the only grilles you can find anymore are made out of Unobtainium!

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "Is the grille used to stop an M ??"

Mike, using the grill to stop an M quite often does not work. I've seen several Ms, and Hs also, where obviously the grill was used as a dozer blade. Had the grill actually stopped the tractor upon initial contact, much less damage would have occured.

Bob S.: Try searching for a GRILL instead of a GRILLE.

Mike isnt a grill something you cook on? I'm not trying to be a wise guy.
