Recommended Tie-Down Kit for Golf Cart Transported in Pickup
Question:
Im going to be traveling cross country with a Club Car golf cart in the back of my 2016 Toyota Tundra. I have a 6 foot bed and the cart fits with all 4 tires in the bed with the tail gate down. I have loading ramps but looking for a quick solution to secure the cart instead of using 4 tie down straps as we will be making many stops and loading and unloading the cart. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks.

The safest way to secure a 4-wheeled vehicle like a golf cart in a truck bed is to use wheel nets that secure to the truck bed in some manner.
The Erickson E-Track Tie-Down Kit # EM09160 is one option that is similar to the Pack 'Em kit you referenced, part # PK-WTD, although I prefer the Erickson since it includes 4 wheel chocks not 2. The Erickson also wins in terms of ease of disconnecting everything, thanks to the spring-loaded E-Track clips which detach easily. You only need to detach 2 straps before you unload the cart.
