PullRite 20K

I have a PullRite 20K hitch on my 2004 Excursion that was installed by the previous owner. Our current TT is a 2008 280RLS KZ Spree. I've only towed with the Ex for a short distance so far and used the factory hitch. Previously I was towing our TT with a 2005 Avalanche. The PullRite seems like overkill for what I currently own and would probably be overkill for anything I may buy in the future. Also, the turns coming onto our property are already pretty tight with the standard factory hitch. That's a lot of extra weight hanging off of the back on a regular basis, too. I'm thinking of selling it and was wondering if anyone here has been in a similar situation. What can I expect to get out of it if I sell it and how difficult is it to remove? It looks rather daunting and I was considering checking around my area to see if any dealers or truck shops might be interested in it. I'm not 100% decided yet, but I'm definitely leaning towards removing it.

I think they are great hitches, however I doubt you will find much interest for it used as, in my experience, most folks don't have any idea what they are or how they work. I had one years ago and just left it on my Suburban and let it go when I traded it in.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking, too. Especially this one, as it only fits the Excursion. I would agree that it seems like a really nice hitch. It just makes tight turns even tighter.

I guess I could try hooking up the trailer to it and see how much trouble I have getting out of my neighborhood before I make a decision on it. I just don't know that I need that much hitch and the extra 500 pounds hanging on the rear of the Ex all of the time.

Did you ever decide to get rid of that hitch? I am in the market for one. Haha, nevermind that was yours we were already talking about.
