Product Spotlight

The spotlight this week is on a product that keeps one of the most used and most important recovery tools, easily accessible. Generally, the first thing most offroaders pull out when someone gets stuck is their recovery strap. In too many cases, the job of finding the strap is almost as tough as getting your buddy out of trouble. Tailgunner Off-Road has a solution that keeps the strap in an easy to reach location, but it can also help keep the 4WD more organized. Their Recovery Strap Holder is very reasonably priced and a clever solution (see: http://tailgunneroffroad.com/product.php?id_product=3 )

From the TailGunner website:

This lightweight aluminum strap holder can be easily mounted on the inside or outside of your vehicle. Tailgates, bumpers, tire carriers, roof-racks, roll bars or interior plastic panels are some ideas for mounting locations.

Keep your vehicle organized. A non-rusting, locking aluminum holder makes it easy to store and find your strap. There are two color options available – natural aluminum and powder coated black (semi-gloss to match most tire carriers, roof racks, etc.). Can be used with a 20’ or 30’ strap.

Great net yesterday! Did anyone catch the name of the hand wipe sanitizers Dr. Aaron talked about?

I did not. Perhaps Dave did.

Dr. Arron's response:

I have some from Purell but many companies make them. A good place to look is in the baby supply area of the grocery or pharmacy
