Tie down storage tips
Anyone have any ninja tricks for storing tie downs without them getting tangled up in your cargo area? Ziplock bags seem like a good option. Seen on internet one guy using old tube socks to store a ratchet strap. I guess an old sock would last longer than a zip lock bag.

Go get some cheap looped velcro straps. Roll the strap up and loop it in the Velcro.

Zip ties work great but only once.

Re: Tie down storage tips
Yeah only thing I use zip ties on is other zip ties.
Velcro is good idea, I may do that but I'm kinda cheap.
It'd be nice to have em stretched out and tightened down on something. Like maybe between the bars on the rear headrests but I'd only have room for one and it'd look odd.
This prob seems like a petty problem but I carry a lot of crap in a small space for just in case.

Anywhere to mount 2 big eyed eye hooks behind your seat?stretch them between the 2?Or
maybe a thin piece of wood( cut 2 whatever width/ length) w/ some nails in the ends & stretched between the 2 & thrown in the floor area behind your seats?
