Coming from a dude that drives a truck and tows frequently, it should be illegal to drive with a hitch in your truck if you’re not trailering anything.

I know these guys are parked, just throwing out my opinion.

I have a truck with a hitch I use for towing for work, it’s not a small hitch but wouldn’t this whole problem be solved by them not backing in?

No, because it still adds ~10” minimum to the overall length of the truck. If you don’t back in, it’ll just be sticking out into the drive lane.

I’m proud to admit that today I parked my truck, noticed that my hitch was still on and sticking out into the driveway, and removed it before going into the store. Some of us try our best to not be stereotypical truck douches. Just not most of us, unfortunately

Nice, muchacho. Same here. My 4 door standard bed truck can barely fit lengthwise into spaces as it is, so I practice what I preach.
