Share Pics of People Hauling or Towing Something Wrong

Nobody's towing anything. They're staying home. :laughing:

I am towing this semi trailer every day except weekends. I wonder if it has one of those lights. It has a white one on the front for low tires.

Yes they left the loading lot as seen.

Well, it is light at least (looks like cellulose insulation). Doubt they would make far at freeway speeds without it falling out. Straps are cheap and easy to use...

The part about easy to use: have you ever sat in a parking lot watching people try to figure out how to use them? Can be very interesting.

A friend of mine restores English sports cars. Does a beautiful job. He is not totally inept. But, ratchet straps completely baffle him.

I use the straps for some purposes, although I won't buy less than a 2" set. For most applications I prefer a good length of nylon rope and a trucker's knot.

Sorry, no picture dang it. At H.D. to pick up a replacement element for hot water heater, and as i'm walking into the entrance, something bright colored catches my eye, look to the left and just leaving the parking lot, was a black pickup. What caught my eye, was the bright red strap, hanging out the back, over the tailgate.

That's ridiculous. They should use high speed rated tires.
