I drive a big truck. You know where my hitch stays when not in use? The fucking cab. I've never understood why people leave them on their trucks. It's not convenient to leave it on because it makes it harder to back up without hitting something.

As a former mechanic in the rust belt, I hated the fuckers who left them in. Why? I’m the one who had to remove the drawbar once rusted solid to the hitch.

I frequently remove them and put them in the truck bed. I have a blind family member and a close friend who is in a wheelchair so when I’m with them it’s justice time

Plus it doubles as an improvised projectile if the truck gets in to an accident. Right through the back window on the cab!
