The point of driving a small car is that it allows you to quickly dodge obstacles and stop in a shorter distance.




... of course you have to pay attention to the big ass truck directly in front of you :lol:

In My Opinion
If you tow with it, make sure to check out the mounting bolts and holes on the hitch where it connects to the frame. You might have to replace it if the holes were elongated when he hit.
I speak from experience in this matter.
 
I need to keep reminding myself of the advantages every time I walk around the back of the truck and cream my leg on it and curse it out.

When I read the title I thought you meant the nuts that some morons have hanging off their hitch. Seemed out of character for you...

You need one of those cool inserts for when you don't need your hitch in. I think I have a Chevy one laying around. Mine is now a dragon that lights up his eyes when the brakes are applied. :cool:

Mines a dong that gets hard when I step on the gas, the faster I go, the bigger it gets.

Agreed :yay: I've had a few people bump it in parking lots, which means they are coming into my space anyway... And at a Skins game once, I had a cowterd fan knee it and fall down, I just laughed :lol:


And that knee bang is 10x's worse when I have the WD hitch in at the time! It has NO GIVE!! And the 2x's I caught it, I'm not sure what language I was yelling out :lmao:

Years ago I borrowed one of the luggage trays that go in a receiver hitch for a family vacation. Forgot it was there when we had a puking baby and I ran to the back to get the role of paper towels. Caught the corner of the tray right smack on the shin as the leg was coming forward (thus hit REALLY hard). Punched a hole damn near a 3/8 inch deep by 3/4 inch long into my leg. Went to the Dr. when it did not appear to be healing properly a month or so later and really painful, and he said it was fine. Messing with it at work a week later I pulled the scab off and then excised a huge blood clot / congelead glob of bloody crud out of it that was about 1/2 inch diameter which then proceeded to allow the backup of infected pus to drain. Wiped it with a wet rag, dressed it with fresh bandages and then peroxided it that night when I got home and every day for a week after and in 2 weeks it was healed. Now I have a 1.5 inch long scar/depression in my leg there.
