Harbor Freight Wheel Chock
Has anyone used a Harbor Freight wheel chock? I am thinking about getting one to put in my trailer. Has anyone used one? Is there anything I need to know about them? Good/bad??

Hate to say it but they work great. Buddy picked one up today for $59 and I tried it out.
Why do I hate to say it. I just paid $490 for two Condors.
The Condor is mostly aluminum so it's a bit lighter and it's rubber feet are more resistant to sliding in an unmounted garage application.
Only real functional difference is that the Condor has a quick release plate you can mount to your trailer floor. Chock clips in and out with no need for bolting.
If your trailer does double duty as mine does, this would be a nice feature. Is it worth the extra money? Of course, otherwise I'm a dumbazz.
Oh yea, I almost forgot. It's made in the USA too. Yea, that's the ticket. That's why I bought it.
