    The receiver is flush with the back of the bumper, and bumpers have no integrity anymore, they don’t prevent the receiver from doing exactly the same thing the hitch does. you seem to have an inherent misunderstanding of either crumple zones in action, or you just maybe wanna bitch and hope no one spots your logical leaps.

      It still has to travel through 6” of towball before hitting the bumper, so it saves that cosmetic damage.

      The hell is with the insults?

      Edit, oh you’re on of those people that think the tow ball protects your truck from damage, which it doesn’t. Hence you thinking I was insulting you in my original comment.

      So a better example would be, you would get damaged if the vehicle stopped 2” short of your bumper, since you have something g attached to your frame sticking 6”. Does that makes sense to you now? I can provide a picture to show the differences with and without a towball on a bumper.

          Im not feeling insulted, why are you suggesting that? I said the hell is with the insults, which you did use, or do you not understand the definitions of some of the words you used?

          Good job not being a stereotypical truck owner lmfao. You are the reason why the rest of us who actually have work trucks get in shit, because you think a tow ball protects your truck from damage… when it’s an 6” for someone to hit when they could have stopped short….

          So yeah, throw some more insults, that’ll show non-truck owners who we really are.
