Recovery Strap Recommendations

I'm sure any strap would be fine, but I'm just curious what you guys think. I saw this one and it's cheap too.

I just want to be able to help people out if they get stuck in the snow or mud or something. It's not for heavy off-roading or anything.

It's up to you, but that looks like a tow strap. Recovery straps usually have an off-colored thread running down the middle. I've never tried it, but I don't know if you'd want a recoil strap for snow situations. Just sounds like it could get outta hand.

**Nevermind. I just looked at the link. It is a stretch and recoil. The off-colored thread is used to see if the strap has been "over-stretched". Maybe this is just a cheap one, but then again, it may be just perfect for what you want. Buy it.

Wow that's a good price. Since your 2 wheel drive and won't be doing anything crazy I see it working fine.
