Rotochoks wheel chocks
I was going to place an order today for a pair of the Rotochoks. When I went to their website, I noticed they had increased the prices to $199.00 a pair for the ML size from $65.00 each. I tried to get them on the phone to ask what had changed with the product that would warrant such a large price increase. No one answers so far.
It was not that long ago I had checked and they were still 65.00 each.
Has anyone bought any at the new price?
Thanks,
Rick

I have used BAL X-Chocks for 8 years and really like them. They are on sale at the PPL motorhome website right now for ~$40 each. I have no association with PPL.

I second the X-Chocks endorsement.
They are very robust and lockable with a padlock. Once you have them fitted initially, it is a quick and easy on and off (unless you feel you need to collapse them entirely.) I personally see no need for that.

I bought my roto-chock a few years ago. It seems as though the price was around $65 as you mentioned. That being said, if I felt the need for another one, I like mine well enough that I'd pay $100 for it.

has anyone ever used the BAL X-chocks on the tag axles of the motorhome? Do I even need to try?
Thanks for any thoughts on this.
