bigb56 is starting off with a positive reputation.
I been wanting to get one of those tow straps to keep in my tool box. The one's I've seen are only rated for 5,000 lbs, is that a heavy duty one?

I guess so. I always kinda slap that... well, never a problem there. I have never owned a dually but have seen them in action.

thats the bad thing about dually's though once your momentum stops youre screwed.......

Nothing wrong with a lady driving a diesel and yanking a man from some mud, especially if she is your lady. I have been trying to get my spouse to drive a powerstroke for a long time. Thanks for sharing
