Well, according to Curt, little guys seem to have their belts come loose easier than us normal sized fellars. That being said, if you are small in stature, the Hybrid Pro Rage might be the better choice. If you are a big guy, then you might get by just fine with a nexgen. Personally, I'm droppin' my coin on the Hybrid. I think both will do the job for me, but I kind of like the idea that it is not dependent on the shoulder belts like the nexgen. Guys, iffin' I'm in error, please, feel free to correct me. The prices are great on both. The rental program may be a way to go as well. Jim, did a dynamite job on the program, but I can understand your confusion on the subject. Both are good products at a good price. As much as I questioned the process, I've had my neck broken twice. Once at C-7 and once at C-6. A hyperflexion fracture of C-1 is rarely survivable and if you do, think Christopher Reeves. That is not making fun of the late actor, just an example of the seriousness of the fracture.
