Hook, you must have me mistaken for someone else - I'm the one that doesn't contribute anything, remember?
The hitch is yours to do as you like - passing it on would be nice, I don't want anything from it, but I appreciate the offer and am happy you got
some good use out of it.
FYI, I recently learned something new about these hitches - you can get a class V with a 2.5" receiver for significantly enhanced load carrying
capacity, especially in the case of extensions, and large ball loads.
Jumping in on the BFG thread? Frankly, why add anything? The DK clan seems happy to follow, so they must be right, right?  There seems to be no understanding of the difference between a stock long-trail T/A,
All-Terrain or Mud-Terrain (let's not even go to the Baja T/A) - after all, if it's part of the Toyota off-road package, it's "Baja Ready". It's all
about preening and showing off to the cluck-cluckers, not "increasing the knowledge base", compa. Life on the Internet, I guess.
You have my email, right?
Saludos, and sorry I don't have any pictures of you to post.

Yeah, I have seen the Superhitches and the likes.......I just have so much invested in the 2" world of towing, especially my solid steel, adjustable
ball mount that does get it past the end of my Lance (barely).
Besides, this class V is rated up to 16k with a WDH.
Thanks for the use of the hitch all these years.

It does seem pretty silly, doesnt it. I guess we buy them....because we can. How many bags of ice does 1200.00 buy?
My primary reason for buying my unit was to freeze a few fillets for the ride home. That's something that an ice maker cant do. I still typically run
an ammonia unit in the Lance for the everyday needs. It's certainly more temperamental.
Really, if someone knows that they will have access to ice within 5-6 days (and doesnt need freezing), 1-2 of these new generation ice chests are
alot cheaper. They are amazing. Just designate a smaller one for beverages and fill the other with good blocks and the food.
