    Less expensive when purchased on a spool also.

    It's not that it would break, it just wouldn't stay in my hands . . . :biggrin_25524::biggrin_2559:

    I'd rather be hit with just a rubber rope than a bungee with a hook.

    Used it for years, had hooks under the rail on my Transcraft Eagle. Last longer than straps and cheaper.

    I live at home with my parents. It's just temorary, until they die.

    We use them, they do break, especially when someone abuses them and it's good to carry some tarp straps.

    There are hooks welded underneath the trailer.

    I should do some pictures, BTW I think they are called shock cords. They stay with the tarps on our specialty trailers so they are quicker than straps.
