Maybe its so that when you call a tow truck, they have somewhere to attach the safety hooks / chains?

johnday, I like them for a couple reason. they are very light, don't rattle and clank, won't scratch the tow loops on your rig.
there still a tool I don't ever want to use. Getting stuck isn't as much fun at 52 as it was at 18.
