Remove your hitch.

[KubotainNH]

Man, I guess you can decide ones manliness and parenting skills by if he removes his hitch or not. I gave my opinion on why I remove mine. I don't really care what others do with theirs or if people leave them on all the time. To each his own.

Totally agree with KubotainNH. Never had an opinion what others do with their hitch and sure don't care what they think about mine. In or out.

So let me get this straight. because they don't take the time to look where they are going, and pull in and hit something that is 100% visible to a sighted person who passed the eye exam to get their license. it is somehow NOT their fault for not being in control of their vehicle? Good thing that wasn't a baby standing at the edge of the back of my truck they ran over not seeing it, instead of my hitch!

Bottom line.. this is a personal responsibility thing.

Know the outter limits of your vehicle, be aware of the OD of your vehicle, and the ID of the space. Approach from a sufficient angle so as to pull in without touching objects other than the pavement!

What happens when you find a space that is a lil too cramped because someone is over the line? as a RESPONSIBLE driver.. you PASS that spot and find a VALID one to park in that doesn't make CRUNCH or SCREECH sounds when you pull your vehicle in!

Walk that extra 10'.. if you can't walk.. get one of those neat tags that lets you park up close in the spots that are extra extra wide.. should be good to go!

just saying!

I laughed at how real and serious this post is..esp the part about a person who can see and the small child part at the back of your car.

i look at it like this. a person who hits a stationary object is almost always at fault! So tha parked truck with a hitch causing ( i didn't see it ) problems is a hard sell to me.

That's just too sensible for some people.

I still can't understand why anyone would leave a drawbar in a truck that is driven and parked in public spaces.

The ones I see everyday are rusted beyond usefulness and a parking lot hazard..I just don't get it. You can justify anyway you want, it just doesn't make sense. I tow constantly nowadays and mine is removed as soon as the trailer is disconnected. Everytime, no exceptions here.

Tim, in most of your posts I seem to agree with you, on this one not so much......
It seems you may just be a bit more **** than the rest of us

O by the way, I do not have my receiver in my truck now.....
I took it off the GMC in June to use it on my ranger, and now it is sitting on the floor of the barn.

Good thing too, cuz otherwise I would have traded it in with the GMC when I bought my Ford
