I honestly dont think that $20 is enough. $50 is more like it.

A strap is only $100 or so worth.

We have 30 something vehicles in on this trip, I'm sure $20 each will cover it.

After the last Cape trip when Yogi returned home we did have to replace the alternator and have the winch rebuilt/serviced - so this sort of stuff does add up in the end.  But as Yogi did say he knew what he was getting into and the strain on the vehicle and parts.

He would do it all again  :cup:

I believe all that needed Yogi's services should take up a collection and help pay some of Yogi's expenses.

I know I would gladly pay for the times he winched me.

Nice idea, there must be some serious wear and tear winching ten rigs through everyday.
