    Out of curiosity, why 53' instead of 48'?

    I have Rentinour's and Fontaine's. I like both, I don't haul a lot of steel but I do haul a lot of bricks and sticks. The Rentinour's J channel for the J hooks collect a lot of debris that is not easy to clean out. The Fontaine is an 06 Phantom and the Rentinour's are Maximisers.
