i have 2 clevises in my truck, and when i needed a tug the strap wasnt going anywhere. I have the hitch without the ball, and clevis fits there perfectly. Lots of trucks i see have closed loop "hooks" in front and or in the back. Make sure get the strap with the loops, not hooks. 30'-50' long is enough (IMO), and make sure it's not a sissy one. Get 3" wide or bigger.

I use a very wide and high strength rated Princess Auto tow strap with a clevis on each end as well. Most oil and gas companies do not permit hooks. Some even do not permit towing anymore unless it is by a towing company- can be scary stuff.
