Must remove the hitch?

One more observation. As I mentioned Perviously, angled parking spaces are the norm here, only older non re striped lots still have any straight pulls left and those are disappearing fast.WITH THE ANGLED PULLS, IF YOU PULL IN GOING THE CORRECT DIRECTION WITH TRAFFIC, (darn caps lock). Then when walking out of the store, the part of the vehicle sticking out the most is the drivers rear corner. You would have to pass that then walk inward to hit the hitch. Walking so as to clear the rear corner of the vehicle takes you plenty far from the hitch. Walking in from the lot, you get the same thing, drivers rear corner sticks out though is the far side of the vehicle as you approach, thus if you do walk into the hitch, you would have walked into the bumper and rear of the vehicle anyway had the hitch not been there.

Watch where you walk, you have to try to walk into one!

I've read every post and have heard nothing compelling beyond "I don't have to, and it's not illegal" of which I agree.

It's still LAZY, Inability or unwillingness to spend 30 seconds to remove a drawbar---LAZY.:D

No other way to frame it sadly....I find the justifications hilarious though---Keep it up I don't care, I'm in it for the amusement now.:D:D

Yes add me to the LAZY list. Not only do I tow multiple trailers, but weekly I also haul my trash can to and from the roadside because my drive is about two tenth of a mile long. I guess I should remove the remove the hitch when I take it down in the morning and reinstall later in the day when I retrieve it but I am just too LAZY. Darn I'm really LAZY.... I should just push the can up and down my driveway every week.

.Do whatever you want on your own property..The issue is whether to leave the DB in in public. You can slam your shins for 10 years, I don't care if the truck is on your lot...:D

I find it funny that those that leave it in are called lazy, but those that can't seem to maneuver 6 inches away are not called clumsy or unaware!

in fact it's our fault due to our laziness that they hit the hitch.

should i remove my gooseneck hitch every time i'm done with it? i don't want to be lazy. or is it since it is in the bed of my truck and not a threat to your shins that it's okay to leave in.

tim do you make your bed after you get out? do you tie your shoes after you take them off?

i take offensive that you call me lazy. i don't think of myself as lazy. though removing my hitch each and every time it's not in use i do think of as unimportant, but it's unimportant to me. if it's important to you that's great, i won't call you stupid or tell you you're wasting your time/energy

As I have stated more times than I can count ..If it's on your property..I could care less. It's the people who are too lazy to remove the rotted drawbars that are never used..These goofs are among the rest of us...This is hysterical

I am glad you can care less. Now if you couldn't that would be a different story. Looks like you might have "goofed" and you are among us. . Lol
