Default WARNING - Don't do what I did...

I was shopping for a jeep related Christmas present for my husband. He has a brand new JK unlimited. I am very inexperienced as an off-roader, but I REALLY REALLY like getting the jeep muddy and dirty!

Last week we went up into the woods with a group of people in Southern Oregon. Somebody needed a "pull" and one of the fellows produced this really nice looking tow strap. I decided to buy my husband one of those for Christmas.

Now here's the warning: DO NOT, repeat DO NOT use your work computer to look for snatch strap.....

hahahaha.....roflmao....there's no telling what that'll produce in search results. Probably about as many things as the number of people who will be off to their fav search engine after reading.

I wound up ordering him one from Quadratrec and I believe it is listed as a tow strap. I am so glad that I didn't call up Quadratrec and say something like:

YO - BUDDY - ship me the biggest baddest snatch strap you have!

Can you imagine? I would have been so embarassed. I've really got to learn to think FIRST, then type or ask questions... I just had this idea in my mind that a snatch strap was a tow strap like thingy, gosh, who knew? DOH!
