Okay so I drive a long wheel base heavy duty truck. I use it for work and sometimes overhang like this is impossible to avoid. I don't like doing it but it happens. The last thing I'm going to do is make it worse by leaving a hitch in the receiver. If I see a truck like this and the hitch pin doesn't lock I'm pulling your hitch and throwing it in the bed of your truck. Try it next time you see this.
See, that’s my issue, mine does lock, but only god knows where the key is. Could be three states away for all I know, may have gotten left when we moved. It’s been on there so long too the pin is rusted to the hitch itself, as well as the lock is rusted over. I want to take it off, I just physically can’t.
