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. My solution was to use two of my hay straps,thread them through the fancy spoke wheels and hook them the best I could to the trailer (no hooks),pulling rear ward.It worked,but what are the rules for securing a car when they provide nothing to keep a car from sliding forward.Now I have two of my straps in Tn.I didnt want to explain to airport security why I had them in my bags when I flew home :lol:
