    Guyyyyyssssss.

    I’ll probably be heading back to ND next Monday. What’s your thoughts on getting back there the most profitable way?

    Im in Phoenix now.

    Phoenix to Texas, Texas to WA, WA to ND?

    You can try the bungee hooks. I found they don’t work well. The tend to be weak and bend. You can put a lot of tension on the rope. My trailer has rope hooks, places that don’t, I use heavy “S” hooks. If memory serves me, I got them from Home depot. A box of 50 was like $8.00.

    Do it! You won’t look back. Also that tarp had the d-rings spaced 7’ apart instead of 8’. Works great for low loads. 30A7D4D5-5F8B-4E72-8F5A-E3E6DC695F07.jpeg

    Not nearly as cool as D Tibbit Buffalo post but still cool. Off I94 North Dakota. Near Teddy Roosevelt park. Beautiful country up here. Delivered to an old abandoned farmhouse where the company leased the property.
