What possibly could go wrong with round pipe fittings in a rusted square trailer receiver. All thats needed now is a set of the bull ***** hanging off of it.

Worst part is there is no way that guy would understand any sort of logic as to why that set up isn't safe. I am surprised there isn't a ball on the bottom to so his can switch between 1 7/8 and 2" just by spinning it on the threads.

Probably brags to all his buddies how he saved $19.99 buy not buying a preassembled mount with a ball already in it.

Strange Hitch

I don`t think it is a hitch ; maybe a tap for a keg in the trunk ?
