I don't really know, but it sounds counterintuitive. However, I tie mine as tight as possible simply to keep the wishbone knot from coming out, but I don't use a truck. I put a knot in each end to make it easier to grab, and then put one end in a vice and grab the other end with visegrips and pull as hard as I can. Or alternatively, you can wrap each end around a screwdriver or pliers handle to get a better purchase and pull as hard as you can.
