Are they so simple and convenient? And you have properly rated rope? That you can also easily fix somewhere?

    Once you’re good at them I’d consider a trucker hitch more simple and convenient than ratchet straps.

    Plus you can make them out of any rope or cord to tie up various sized items. I keep paracord tied inside the cargo area of my cars and trucker hitches make securing small loads really easy.
