    Hate those fucken assholes. Pavement princess driving motherfuckers.

    It literally takes less than 30 seconds to bend down, pull the cotter clip, pull the pin, and toss the hitch end in the bed. Saves the shins and kneecaps of yourself and everyone else.

      If this is the same picture I saw years ago. This is from a farm college. So they kinda need the toe hooks.

      Sure, but could they teach them how to park then?

        They're empty and almost every tow hitch is rusty. I think if they're used the rust would get knocked off and they'd be shiny, like the one back there. They literally just buy trucks to make themselves feel manly, I guess because they can't any other way. Then they never use it for any of the things they argue people need trucks for.

        Nah, they’re just Harbor Freight cheapo balls. All stainless balls are like $60, plated ones are like $20. It doesn’t take much for the plating to wear off from a trailer, and then there’s no stopping the rust.

            I'm no expert, but I'm not saying it's stop the rust, just rub it off. Rust is a thin layer on the outside, and it comes off really easily. I assume actually hooking up a trailer and using it on occasion would wear the rust off (for a little while). I could be totally wrong though.

              Most places it illegal to have them on when not in use. Most people leave them on as a form of crash protection, like in a parking lot.

                  How else will anyone know that they used their truck for something more than getting groceries? They have to let everyone know they tow a lawn mower with the ridiculously large truck.

                    I had an uncle that would quite literally do that and throw the hitch(es) into the bed of the truck every single time he walked through a parking lot. If he had to do that to multiple trucks before getting to the store so be it.

                      You’re backwards. The rusty ones are the ones getting used because the load and weight cause friction that takes the chrome coating off, exposing the underlying metal to the elements that cause rust.

                      Normally you grease the ball to keep it from getting bad, but a lot of people don’t keep up with that part.

                        Because I fucking hated getting grease all over my hands, pants from accidental brushing, and just everywhere else. The rusty ball still works for more than 20 years, so I took the tradeoff.

                          Good man.

                          I do the same, but with bicycle lights that people have left on. I know how annoying it is to find your battery empty.

                            Make a habit of removing their tow hitches so you can get past.

                              this is such a stupidly pathetic insult that really just pisses me off to no end when people say it. hell it's not even an insult, it's just stupid and always has been.. might as well just make fun of people for skin colour and gender.

                              It was always about making fun of insecure masculinity, which is a very outsized problem in our current moment. But I do think you're right and I'll start calling out that instead. ✌️

                                I'm sure it depends if you are living in a city that is run by chuds.

                                  Yeah though I imagine we disagree on who the chud is or why. Selfishness isn't patriotism or freedom bud.

                                    Basically yes. Their emissions laws are written so that bigger cars can produce more CO2 and other emissions. So small cars are not viable while large cars are barely regulated.

                                          Those aren't a choice. Driving a pavement princess 100% is.

                                          They usually try to justify it with the loose excuse of hauling or towing things, that they do maybe twice a year. It's pathetic.

                                          The ones that actually get used regularly for their design are obvious, because they're beat up from use. And from my experience, they also tend to be the ones that don't park like this. Likely because backing in means you can't actually load anything in the bed.

                                          I don't give a damn about the trucks/drivers. Insult them all you want. don't use body parts as insults. it's no different then using skin color, or saying someone is a lesser human because they have small tits or if their balding they are a weak human..

                                          they are bad insults that make innocent people feel inferior for no reason.
