I'm sure he's talking about hitches like these.
You don't want to have sticky grease all over these.
rolling around in the back of your truck.
I sure don't.

come on...if you grease your balls you could slip off a chair.

Some teen driving an Oldsmobile hit the back of my Silverado... I had just unhitched the trailer and wanted to top off the truck fuel tank.

The ball mount took all the impact and not a scratch on my bumper... the Olds had a trailer ball pushed all the way into the radiator and that was against the fan...

Just don't see a downside here.

Why would you let that bother you? Just make sure and remove your own.

Because they end up banging up my vehicles. Had it happen to my BMW and last F150. Plus it's a shin banger.

How many feet long was your hitch?

FWIW...I kept losing ball covers and the tennis ball was too tight and hard to remove (and started getting greasy), so I tried condoms on the hitch ball as a temporary grease shield. That works pretty well, but they have a really limited life in that application...well, I guess a short life in their design application, too...I don't even bother removing the condom when I hook up the trailer, just remove the left-over rubber bands from around the ball neck every so often.

The only time we ever take a hitch out of one of our trucks is to put another one in…. That pretty much goes for most of the people around here.
