    The tie downs don't necessarily mean ropables are ready. As was already mentioned, we do have simplified chains in game already. Since load tie-downs are going to be under a lot of tension while in use it can get away with the simple chains we already have for stuff like the Gambler Marshall.

    I do really hope to see a headache rack on the T-Series now with all the new content we're seeing.

    Also, we forgot the chain on the poogion.

    I feel like a headache rack is a must with these loads. Otherwise it wouldn't be realistic.

    as someone who watches too much heavy towing videos (to be specific Casey Ladelle), they're known as binders.

    Do you think the 200BX will be a remaster or a remake?

    Does anyone find it funny how we sort of indirectly got two teasers this week? We go one yesterday on Twitter showcasing the Wydra and the new 200BX/Nissan Silvia thing, and this one today.

    I've looked closer and I think the chains on the front and rear trailer look identical which makes me think it's not a "rope" but a static object.

    I'd assume they're talking about dropping a steel roll on a car

    Apart from the steel roll being its own prop, I also hope for the ratchet strap chain being its own prop, because we already have a big, fat, nautical-grade chain, with the Flail prop! I want to do a Tug of War with a realistic chain! :)

    And on the D-Series too! The D-Series should be the first car to get a headache rack, its backlight is directly exposed to the loads of the bed!
