Today we're going to be taking a look at the Florida Mascot 2" Hitch Cover from AMG. The hitch cover's going to allow you to show your school pride, it adds a clean finished look to your hitch, and it's going to help keep dirt and grime out of the receiver tube of your hitch. The hitch cover's made from a steel construction, it's going to feature a really nice black powder coat finish which is going to do a great job at resisting rust and corrosion. Here at the front we're going to have the chrome plated metal emblem. It's got a nice rust-proof and fade-proof design. The product is American made. Here on the backside, they have a foam gasket, this goes around the piece that slides into the hitch. The gasket's going to help reduce rattling between the hitch and the hitch cover.
This is an officially licensed product, it does require a hitch pin and clip or a hitch lock to get it fully installed in your hitch. Those items are sold separately, so if you're in need of one, you can find them here at etrailer.com. The pin holes on this hitch cover will accept the standard 5/8" diameter pin. A few measurements to go over with you real quick, starting with the overall width of the hitch cover face. That's going to give a measurement of about 5". Overall height, that's going to measure about 3 1/2".
Then the distance that we have from the back of the foam pad to the center of the hitch pin hole is going to be pretty close to 2 1/2". This is designed for a 2" by 2" hitch, very simple installation, just slide this piece into the receiver tube of your hitch, line up your pin holes and secure with a hitch pin and clip or hitch lock. That's going to do it for today's look at the Florida Mascot 2" Hitch Cover from AMG.
Ratings & Reviews
Customer service has been excellent; however, the trailer hitch cover is starting to show wear less than a year after purchase. I would not purchase this item again due to the premature wear.
The Arizona State University hitch cover I purchased through etrailer matches every detail of my Jeep Wrangler and allows me to show off my school pride in style.
Thanks for your message and following up a year later! I have purchased two of these hitch covers for both of our cars. I'll attach pictures. I believe the first one I bought was 2 years ago and the second was a year ago. The two year old cover has shown a great deal of rust and deterioration over those two years. The other one is in much better shape but I would expect the same to happen over this next year.
I do live in Pittsburgh, a very rainy and humid climate for most of the year. Obviously in winter months, we get a lot of snow and ice with the roadways covered with salt. I'm sure those factors contribute to the rusting of this product.
I'll be happy to log in and make a review post similar to above if you would like me to. I have been a happy customer of yours with a few of these similar products.
Thanks!
WOW!!! WHAT A BEAUTIFUL RECEIVER COVER! TOP QUALITY. PERFECT WAY TO SHOW MY SERVICE TO MY COUNTRY WHEN I'M NOT TOWING!!! THANKS ETRAILER!!!
Perfection and quality. My husband is a Marine. We are proud of his service like we are all who serve. I've seen inexpensive (cheap and cheesy) hitch covers, but wanted quality only while respecting the Marine logo. This is it. Thank you.
It took to long to get to us via mail and I wish the product had multiple holes giving us the option of adjusting it to fit the hitch receiver better.
I took about a month shopping before I purchased. The one thing I didn't want was a cheap plastic hitch cover representing my team. I love this hitch cover because it is high quality and really stands out. After having it a year it still looks like it did the day it arrived. Thank you etrailer for outstanding quality. Two thumbs up!!!!!
Did a lot of research on this product and it came through with flying colors. I ordered this product and one other from another site. This cover was superior in thickness size and chrome. Also the pin opening is large enough for standard 4" pins. If you are considering this product I suggest you don't wait. As for the company, great service. I was contacted shortly after the purchase, tracked the item and was contact about satisfaction after delivery. Outstanding. Will not return item but with their attention to detail I am sure if there were anything of issue the company would be on top of it. Thank you I will be ordering from you again.
I am very pleased with the new hitch cover I ordered from etrailer.com. It was reasonably priced and is made of outstanding material. It was shipped and received very promptly and has already attracted and drawn numerous compliments. It enables me to continue showing pride and esprit de corps of the 1st Calvary Division in which I served during the Vietnam War. I would not hesitate to order other products from etrailer.com in the future and highly recommend them for anyone considering similar purchases.
Before I took it out of the box, I could tell that this was a high quality product. The colors are bright and the fit is perfect. The foam seal to keep water out of the hitch was an unexpected nice touch. It looks great on my truck.
Be advised, it does not come with any kind of retaining device, you will need a hitch pin to keep it in place. I purchased a locking pin because something as nice as this would probably get stolen.
Love this hitch cover. It is exactly what I was looking for.
I love the emblem. Exactly as shown in the photos and the construction of this is solid.
My only problem is that the length of the tube does not allow me to use it when I have the anti-rattle collar installed. I have to remove the anti-rattle when not towing. I would love it if there was an option for a tube that is maybe 1 inch longer.
Great job !!!
It looks nice and I'm sure my hubby will love it.
Arrived yesterday, very pleased with the quality!! Told my daughter we will have to get a lock for it so no one steals it!! LOL!! It is a Christmas gift and I am sure they are going to love it!
Excellent quality and on time shipping. Thank you
Was looking for the hitch cover in black. Nice and heavy piece, husband loves it!
Great quality product. Received it just as advertised.
Only problem was that my hitch has rounded edges and this cover has square ones. Took care of this with an angle grinder.
I like the product and it was delivered within the estimated time frame. It goes well with my 2017 Jeep Wrangler.
My only suggestion would be to provide a hitch pin with the product.
Excellent product!! When I was shopping around this hitch cover was $5-10 more than other websites but worth every penny. Heavy duty material and a perfect fit. I highly highly recommend his hitch cover and doing business with this company/website. GO GATORS!!
Excellent service. Prompt delivery. Very nice hitch cover. Love it!
Excellent Quality and fast delivery!! B ravo
The channel was very slightly too large (squared edges vs. rounded channel edges were the problem). Had to file the edges to fit into the hitch channel. .installation is on a 1995 Land Rover Discovery
