Most Popular Steel Shank - Matte Black for 1995 Toyota Tacoma

I like it. I have a few thousand miles on it by now pulling a 2015 MINI on a uhaul auto transport trailer with a 2020 Tacoma and I think it helps keep a smooth ride. I’ve pulled with it from Phoenix to Seattle and back, and recently from Phoenix to Lewes Delaware. Before my first trip with the hitch I got into a lengthy debate over whether or not I had wasted my money on the entire concept of this hitch or not. The first time I pulled an empty trailer with it, I thought maybe I had fallen for a slick pitch because it wasn’t all too different than any other trip with a trailer bouncing around behind me. I pulled the trailer around my neighborhood on streets that I knew for a few laps around the block, then switched hitches back to my old solid one and did the same route and there was indeed a difference with this hitch. It won’t make the bumps and tugs disappear but it will noticeably mute them. Along all of my tows there have been stretches of road where I have thought to myself I’m glad I have this hitch and wonder how much worse the ride would have been without it. The trailer I use has surge braking and there was a concern that the horizontal movement of the hitch could trigger the brake but I haven’t noticed that to be an issue. I recommend the product but if you don’t buy this hitch, use etrailer for whatever you do buy. THE BEST service, fast shipping, great communication, I appreciate this site so much. Every internet shopping trip starts at etrailer, if they sell what I need I’ll buy it here. I want them to stay around for as long as possible, they remind me of what service and support from a business is supposed be and I’m happy to do what I can to keep them around. I’m glad I found etrailer, thanks!

etrailer.com always gives excellent service. You can depend on them.

I own and tow three trailers with three different ball sizes so this is a cure all. This is a perfect match for my Toyota Tacoma pickup truck. I like how it stores up out of the way. No more skinned legs from bumping it. Pro: Nice looking, durable, heavy duty, pamphlet with it including some white grease for the pins, easy to fill out on-line warranty. Etrailer was fast shipping and kept me informed about a delivery date. Con: None

A great product that works as advertised. My 19 Tacoma still has 10" of ground clearance and 8" when using the 2" ball fully dropped, all of this is without a load.
