Is a kinetic rope worth it?
Great rope, worth having. I use this with my 99 Dodge 1500 to pull people out on the beach. It’s better than any strap I’ve used, and have just enough stretch to avoid jerking. The 33,500 is a bit much for my truck, I should have gone with the 27,000 or whatever it is, but the 33,500 should be great with a 3500 truck.
