I'm actually coming to regret buying the Reese Custom hitch from Ford. Getting this SOG to release is a real bugger. Getting it to latch all the way is almost as bad..

I am getting better at backing this rig up... This is twice now that I've put this trailer into a very narrow spot.
Weather here is mild 70's and dripping / raining off and on..
