Re: Things that make you go hmmmm...
Now that's what I call "One fancy drop hitch"
Where'd you see this?

I love the safety chain attachment hole. Much closer than the ones under the bumper.

Cheaper than having a receiver hitch welded on.

Re: Things that make you go hmmmm...
That truck came off a farm. Most likely did not cost the framer one cent and got the job done for what it was intended to do.

Re: Things that make you go hmmmm...
That truck was sitting in the parking lot at my place of employment. And, no, we're not a farm.

Re: Things that make you go hmmmm...
Not nearly as cool as the one on my old Pinto. Looks like a 1 7/8 and a 2 inch ball, all go and no show.

I don't think it's from Red Green. No duct tape anywhere.

Re: Things that make you go hmmmm...
Upside down and back wards. Yeah, it does make me go HMMMMM. It is obviously all about safety. If the trailer comes off the uper ball it would be caught by the lower ball. Perfect sense. Well ? Hmmmm

You know that beats my trick of pouring hot coffee on the mirror so I can start driving to work.

Re: Things that make you go hmmmm...
that was in an episode of the red green show, they took a cordless drill, removed the crank for the windows, and viola!! power windows, then they took some hair dryers and taped them under the mirrors with cords running to a converter box and they would roll down the power windows and turn on the mirror defrosters, they did something else as well I just dont remember what.

Re: Things that make you go hmmmm...
I think that is a special turn sharper rig, so the trailer always is on the inside corners they use those in nascar!
