tiltahitch-anybody have one?

[digger2]

I know these have been out for a couple of years.They seem like a really neat idea for a straight bed trailer as far as clearance problems.
So does anybody have one and if so,what do you think of it ?

Had to look it up.

World's first tilting trailer hitch allows you to tilt your trailer to any desired angle.

At first I thought "why would you want to do that?" then looked at the site and figured out why. That is a neat product. I used the three point on the tractor to get the wifes car on the trailer because of clearance problems.

Interesting concept. The biggest drawback is the overall length of the hitch is fairly long. Will put more stress on the bumper and decrease carrying capacity.

Yes,there could be a drawback because of length and some added stress,but for somebody who does'nt max out their trailer often,i think it is a really neat idea.

Looks like a bit of a gimmick to me. The same thing is accomplished by just raising the tongue jack, I do it all the time with my car trailer. Or running the rear wheels of the tow vehicle up on blocks. Either technique works and you don't need the expensive tiltahitch.
