    What are we looking at here? Keep in mind I've only been trucking for like five minutes.

    Oh, I guess the thread is referring to tarp theft. I would think that would do it, but looks like there is a tire and strap up for grabs.

    Only problem is that the trailer is not hooked to anything. I got chains. Drag it back hook it up & steal your trailer tarps tire & strap.

    if they want it, they’ll take it man. This stuff only keeps the honest honest.

    I think it could be hard on your tarps not to mention how many times he’ll just drive off without them.

    Since they can't take the TRAPS they'll just pull all those LED lights out and take them

    Run a dolly leg into that spare tire before dropping the trailer to keep it safe also.
