Trailering Your Car
Cross or Not To Cross
You may not own a Trailer Queen but if you are a car guy or gal you have likely had to trailer your car one time or another. It might have been to take it to a repair shop, or it may have been to take a project car home. If you do have a Trailer Queen, your car has likely spent far more time there than being driven. Did you know it has been reported that more cars are damaged on trailers than on the road!
When car people get together, and they own a trailer, the subject always turns to “Is it better to cross the tie down straps or not to cross?” Over the years I have done both. Through experience I can say I will never cross straps again. I always go straight from the tie down hook to a safe point on the car. I can go into my experiences, but I believe this video by Mac’s Tie Downs does a far better job than I can. This is not an endorsement or paid advertisement by Mac’s.
