Was in Omaha at my daughters and had to go get a few things. Parked the truck and a lady taps on my window and told me my trailer hitch was sticking out too far. I just looked at her and said what? She said it was unsafe and I shouldn't be parked with it in. I looked at her and said your nose sticks out pretty far too, but I'm not worried about it! Got dirty look as I told her I wasn't talking about her car either.

Why is it when you just bump a hitch it hurts like crap. I believe i would have said "if you ask me and say please" i might remove it. LOL

I hit my own heading around my truck with 2 garbage bags in hand, hit it so hard it was over a month before the knot was completely gone..! :D

Good thing you aren't Crappie Luck, That would mean that the trailer snapped off again and it was just the tongue attached back there. :D

It's an "Assault Hitch", the kind only the military uses.

Why was she walking so close to your vehicle? The only people who should be that close are the ones riding in it. Old bat had it coming for being bossy. ;)
I am the world's worst for shinning a hitch. I know where they are and run into them anyway.

Not too long ago they were trying to pass a law that you couldn't have one in the receiver because they were causing major damage in a rear end collision. Also had a few who backed into other vehicles which takes the radiator out. It didn't make it very far when they considered how many farmers, construction and other types of trucks, cars and vans have hitches. She was referring to hitting it with her car. I told her she has a problem driving if she has to get that close to my bumper, that's when she let me know how she really felt.
