I am going to add to the chorus and tell you to buy a 3" x 30' strap. I have used all kinds of ropes for recovery and none but the really huge barge ropes really did the job like a 3" strap. Call it a recovery strap or a tow strap if you want, but they do stretch and they are made for what we're discussing. Replace it when the sun or dirt in the fibers compromises its strength, which will happen with both straps and ropes. You might be reluctant to throw out a $200+ rope but I bet you won't feel the same way about a $40 strap.
