My wife's tilt meter goes off before mine, and even more so if it is leaning her way. It is usually a very audible alarm in my right ear, along with grabbing my right arm. ;) We do travel along the side of a number of hills. We just go slow and make sure we know what the tires are going over. The only "near rollover" we have had, was backing up in relatively flat forest area and the rear wheel dropped in an unseen hole. We were teetering on going over, but body leaning and pulling back out slowly saved it. With any new vehicle you have to get the confidence with what it can do. Gone are the days where I would push it past the limits.
Well said, and the limits of the P5 do not extend far.

The one you concede may have been OE probably wouldn't have happened in a 700 or 1000. There's just no denying the tippiness of the P5.

Have an incline meter app on phone for tilt display. Wondering what is the general safe limit for side hilling? Know it depends on driver only or with passenger. Any experience?

There is an Android app called RollMeOver that's does what you are looking for.
