  4. Usually it's not needed, but in case of serious repetitive mistakes caused by distractions, not adhering to trip lead instructions, lack of communication definitely demands the clearance of red flag raised by the same trip lead. Hope you understand the bigger concern we have with every promotion is to keep you and all other safe, at all times.

  9. That's a sweet deal for 30k kms in 6 years. Just hope there is no long gap of a year or two or three parked inside, as that's not good for any car. If 30k reasonably spread across 6 years then its perfect.

  25. @Ashok chaturvedi hope you remember how I recovered dead F150 by using broad strap as a bridle and attached viking rope through the bridle to my car. Reason for that is when F150 crossing the dune bridle strap will not go inside the dune easily and viking elasticity will keep pulling the car out as my car weight was quiet light to take full load of F150. Second advantage that I will have 3 meters (fixed) + 9 meter (elastic) distance of 12 meter giving F150 driver enough chance to brake with hard foot as vehicle was dead and braking in dead vehicle is always very tough. Third advantage to use bridle is to direct all the (limited) pulling power in center of F150 than pulling it from left or right shackle to increase the drag and resistance for my car.
