I recently helped move my daughter and her b.f. to Tn.The convoy was b.f. in his motor home (what he lives in),daughtter in her loaded tacoma and me driving a loaded rental truck pulling a rental car trailer with b.f.s Nissan sports car.I know how to properly tie down a tractor from reading YT but this car hauler did not provide much to secure the load.All it had was the strap things that go over the front wheels,ratching to the front anda chain near each axle but no way to tighten and this car did not have convential axles.
