    Did a little musky float yesterday. The full length Prinsu rack makes hauling boats a breeze and the Tacoma makes getting into the remote launches a piece of cake.20191026_151300-01.jpg

    Last I herd was they were calling for 1”-3”. I had to run into Wausau today and they were dumping that anti-ice solution all over the highway.

    They probably moved somewhere warm.

    Most of them probably lost everything they had doing mods to their trucks. Homeless and living in their RTT.

    Snowmobilers are hoping it last. The clubs haven't even put out the marker signs on the trails yet. It's going to melt over the next few day.

    Saw this at Tractor Supply.
    1C318104-A31A-4333-8566-5EB5F69223B1.jpg
    I don’t have any recovery gear in my personal truck or my work truck. I’m always at some remote location in bad weather driving my 2WD work truck. It’s a 360* swivel. 7B6E6CC3-66FF-47C9-B556-42E514B307A7.jpg Thinking about buying it and having a winter go bag I can swap out of my trucks daily. Anyone have this or thoughts?

    Thanks

    I just have one of these. They do the same function except the shackle allows a loop to be attached quickly. Screenshot_20191102-122052_Chrome.jpg

    I bought the normal shackle.
    40E2DAFC-F676-42A5-B7DD-39EFA0A6CF9F.jpg
    I looked at swivel one and kept thinking it will snap at the bearing. Picked up a snatch strap also to toss in the work truck for the Nw Wisconsin trips in the work truck this winter. Snatch strap was on sale for $65 normally $90

    I have one like the one @Atrox1529 posted. I got it at Menards for about $25. You definitely want one with a clevis.
