My favorite (triggered by seeing one on my commute this morning) are guys with 5"+ lifts that that necessitate 5"+ drop hitches that they run ALL THE TIME. I like lifted trucks as much as the next guy, but I just think it looks dumb to drive around with a giant tail hanging off your damn bumper waiting to get clipped off.
Just toss it under the backseat unless you're towing! Easy!
haha dont mind me..i've always been fond of bagged/bodydropped trucks. hekk i still got one sitting in my garage covered up with 3 layers of car covers and the wifeys "summer clothes" full of boxes.

Random google photo to make the point:

Yeah, that one's a little ridiculous anyway, but the point stands for the more "tasteful" lifts as well. You're just asking to carve up someone's bumper when trying to maneuver around - It takes all of 2 seconds to pull the pin and toss the hitch in the back. Just do it!
