Share Pics of People Hauling or Towing Something Wrong

I can buy miles of zip ties or tape for $40, and since I pretty much always use more than 2 straps, I'd be realistically looking at $80 or $120 for those things. I hate to rain on anyone's entrepreneurial idea, but this one seems to be more expensive and less convenient than conventional solutions.

I actually just run the end back along the strap, wrap it around once, and pull a half loop thru. Big giant slip knot. If I'm making a long trip, I throw another half hitch on it as a lock stitch. Free, no waste, comes out easily, and nothing extra to carry with me.

I usually stick the slack in the truck toolboxes. I also carry some 10ft chains on the truck that go nicely across the truck without much slack to deal with.

If enough people order wrap a doodle doos that guy can buy a decent tractor and a corset.
Reminds me of Fred Sanford selling Whopper Choppers.

The phrase, "a solution hunting for a problem," comes to mind.

I use dog collars from the "dollar" store to keep them wrapped for storage. Could also get small cat/dog collars to keep tails secure. Haven't tried it yet, but next time I'm near a store, I will pick a couple up and try!

Another idea would be to use a sock that has worn through at hole or toe.

I have never had to transport a roller that size. Is it normal in some parts to pull them down the road like that? I'd trailer it.

It seems pretty obvious that the van was on the upper deck of that car hauler to the right that is mostly out of frame, and it was too tall for the underpass...

I just use velcro for strap management, you can buy a 60ft roll of 3/4" for about $13. It's reusable, works for storage and excess strap management. I keep the roll in the truck in case I need extra, just cut off a piece the size you need.

That's pretty close to what I do, minus the flip-flops.
