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.

To be fair, my hitch saved my truck from damage three times after being hit by people not paying attention. Cheapest insurance I’ve ever bought
