I was looking around on YouTube the other night and found these. Anyone ever used this tie down system?

ATV Trailer Tie Down System and Gorilla ATV Winches

It looks like a good tie down system and is considerably less expensive than my e-track system. If you get it, be sure to let us know how you like it.

Looks interesting, but a little pricy for the simplicity of it. Not alot of material or machining in it, plus you have to buy the other stuff seperate....hmmmm not cool in my book. Just my opinion

It's the ideal system for people who have money to burn. D-rings and ratchet straps are a whole lot cheaper.

I was thinking the same thing.....how is it different then D-ring and straps? But to each his/her own. Just my 2 cents

I can't say form personal experience, but in my mind, even though I hat straps, having 2 in the front and two in the back lets me sleep at night. For some reason, I like knowing I have redundancy just in case. Ratchets are the way to go. If your run in the rain, stop often to tighten, as they stretch when wet.
