:iagree:
especially with:
I only found out that my 2006 Jeep Liberty did not have them when I got stuck on my 2nd trip. Like most people I assumed they would be there.
If in doubt over any of your essential recovery and safety equipment please get one of the Marshals to double check it for you - I got Mpenzi to check out mine today just to be on the safe side.
Rated equipment = safety + peace of mind.
especially with:
Please don't assume your car has these - check if you have only just got your car or are new to the club, it'll only take a couple of minutes and well worth the time.A decent front & aft towing points.
