    I ordered a couple of those straps and 6 shackles and got them delivered for under $100 awhile back. Probably the best deal on a gear out there.

    Didnt want to start a new thread so I'll put this here. I just ordered a 30'x3" towstrap with 27,000 lb break strength from Cabelas. I decided on it after looking at some of the other threads about tow straps. I figured I might was well go a little over kill on this purchase cuz you never know.

    http://www.cabelas.com/product/30-Recovery-Strap-with-Sewn-Loops/734152.uts?Ntk=AllProducts&searchPath=%2Fcatalog%2Fsearch.cmd%3Fform_state%3DsearchForm%26N%3D0%26fsch%3Dtrue%26Ntk%3DAllProducts%26Ntt%3Drevovery%2Bstrap%26WTz_l%3DHeader%25253BSearch-All%2BProducts&Ntt=revovery+strap&WTz_l=Header%253BSearch-All+Products

    I have another 20'x2" in my box but I had to cut it to remove it from the other vehicle. There was no place to attach the damn thing so we had to get creative.

    I definitly aint ever cuttin this thing :D

    Paid the same for a 3x30 @ ORW...was nice that it came with a massive zip-lock. Funny cause I was like I still haven't used this the other day. Needless to say I was stuck that evening.

    Made in the USA. Also available in Recovery Orange, Tree Green, and what I like to call the HD Steel-Head Silver w/Special Edge Webbing for extra abrasion resistance.

    I looked at yours and would have went with that but I had an extra $50 in Cabelas points so it was basically a free strap. That is a great deal though.
