I do wonder what breaks first. I mean, these bindings (or whatever they are called) are quite resistant.

"Cargo straps", or "Ratchet straps".
Those look like 50mm, and the smallest MLC I've seen for 50mm is 2500kg - probably more than the vehicle itself. I suspect what would happen is the plastics of the quad get squashed, then the pickup suspension, then the sides of the pickup, then the wheels would break up.
Followed by shrapnel ...

These things are fabulous! Not long ago, I needed to lift/suspend/rotate/lower a 300lb concrete tabletop from my movable workbench onto the base. (which was mostly made from pallet material) Not having a hoist, or even anyone to help, I put together a crude lifting frame and used ratchet straps to do all the work...awkward and with a limited range, but it got the job done!
...and the table turned out beautifully, one of my better projects! 
But yeah, I'd expect major damage to the truck and atv!

Came out of a cafe in Manhattan a long time ago. A dude in a green jumpsuit was making a big show of getting on his matching Kawasaki Ninja or some such nonsense. He was so focused on drawing attention that he didn't notice the padlock in the front disc. But a couple of us did.
Got on the bike, started it up, spun the back tire and *clunk* fell over like a stone. We all stood there just as intently watching him work his way out from under the bike and lift it up. No one lifted a finger.
Some say he's still crying.

This week, I've had two reminders of our mortality.
A friend had a stroke and died on Thursday, another friend went to the hospital with chest pains.
He was diagnosed with an aortal dissection - a tear on the interior wall of his aorta and given a 60% chance of surviving surgery.
After 9 hours, we were told he was in the ICU.
He is a law enforcement officer and stays in shape, but he wasn't immune.
No preaching, just a reminder of our mortality.

Indeed. I dropped of my gf earlier this morning to go to her aunt's funeral in MI -- she died on Thursday too.

Yep.
back in 2012 my dad went into the Hospital laughing and joking and died 5 days later from heart failure.

Last April my 56 y/o brother walked into the local ER feeling ill. They measured a 50/0 BP and admitted him immediately. 36 hours later he died of the flu.

Get saved and it won't be a big thing having absolute confidence that death, which came via the fall off man, can then be just the threshold to eternity in heaven.

On one side it's sad, on the other it's liberating in my opinion. It allows us to live more freely and not give in to stupid rancors and to treasure each positive moment in our life.

When I had the stroke, I thought after 2 days on the floor, that I was a goner, but it didn't feel bad at all. I felt peacefull and ready to go.

No joke,
I lost a son-in-law last week, total surprise, he was supposedly in good health.
Of course I had a stroke 3 years ago. The doctior told me that people who havea massive stroke like me and don't get help within 4 hours, 90% die. I was on the floor for 2 days!
My younger brother was driving around town, felt pain in his chest and drove himself to the closest hospital. While in the ER, he had a major heart attack, they moved him up stairs and then put in 4 stents. Thankgully he's doing fine now!
One never knows, life can change or end in an instant.
I keep asking myself
What would I do if this is my last day on earth? And how do I know it isn't?
