I don't know what kind of truck you have, assuming its a pickup. If you are considering a bumper hitch, I would have a frame hitch installed instead, at least Cat 3 depending on what kind of pickup you have. You could buy one and save money by installing it yourself. Balls in the bumper and temporary hitches like U-Haul rents that attach or hang on bumpers are a no-no.

I've seen guys pick them up for $2,500 or so, clean and fix them up pretty nice. A 1/2 ton with a frame hitch will pull a 20' job easy enough. Kind of a lite pickup for that, but I've seen them pull 30' jobs. Gypsies travel the country pulling 30' trailers with 1/2 tons.

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
