I am new to TC's getting ready to purchase one in the next couple of months and looking into the Torklift tie down's. My question is the steel version vs the aluminum? I assume the big advantage of the aluminum is they do not rust, so I am wondering if this alone is worth the extra $$ over steel? Curious if anyone here has steel and what their experiences and suggestions might be. Thank you.

Update, I have just ordered the Torklift steel tie downs and plan to get the Fast Guns when we get closer to making purchase on the TC. I decided on steel to save on $$. The weight weight savings of the aluminum did not seem significant enough to warrant the additional dollars. My only concern with steel is the potential for rusting, but I figure some wax here and there may help and if they do start to rust, a wire brush and a can of Rustoleum will take care of it. Thanks for the input here.
