    for me the trl was cheaper to get from mercer but my credit is bad and the interest rate would have been real bad if i bought.

    some things in the store are cheaper but some are the same as you can do elsewhere. straps are $10 which isnt any cheaper but they will give you $2 off if you trade in a bad one. i traded in 7. beveled timbers for $9, headache racks you can get some deals on. i had most things so i dont remember a lot of prices. i know i didnt like their tarps, looked and felt cheap to me

    Did they mention the dash cam for $84 dollars I think. I got one and love it. Comes with 16gig sd card.
    I also got one of the oil bypass systems which does a great job.
    I also have two tarps from the and it has been great.
    I haven't found 30' straps for ten dollars anywhere else but hey, I don't shop much.

    bought the only other place they are 10 dollars are at tarpstop by the box full. the 3600 hundred dollar guy must have bought the new headache rack.

    only thing different with the steps might be wide loads signs and such, but quite a few of the flatbedders have those also.

    all in all the stuff at the mercer store is at cost. they got about any thing you need and have a lot stuff like oil bypass, rite weigh scales that you can use if ya like. and i like that camera i bought.

    their tarps are made by harps tarps near atlanta.

    the $3600 guy bought a used rack but it was still expensive, it was a huge enclosed one. and he bought some extra things. yes the only diff in the step is the few oversize things.

    i am thinking of buying the oil bypass filter and the air weigh scales.
