    I’m not even phased by his ignorance and fat wallet. The dude probably pays a certified mechanic to change his oil.. cuz certified.

    Its just a knot in some amsteel :notsure: what makes a company more certified to tie a knot? Maybe they're just afraid of the liability

    People are so stuck on a company making soft shackles, sending 5 to be strength tested and making 500 to send out to your door step. They like “woah you can’t use that soft shackle you made, it’s not rated”..

    This is how I see it..

    I was going to buy 37” Cooper Pros. So I made a deal with Matt because he gets a good deal on Coopers and wanted my 35s for his Jeep.

    I then decided that I didn’t want to do the work required for 37s right now.

    I figured what the hell, if Matt was interested in buying my Maxxs, I might as well try the Pros.

    Also looking ahead to Moab. It’ll be nice to have newer rubber out there I think.

    It’s just rattle can bed liner. The only affordable, decent, tailgate I could find was white.

    It actually came off of a brand new truck that had a double door cap put on it.

    Nope. Just a bad day.

    Worse if during a tornado and with hail falling.
