Re: [RC] The Circle of Safety - avoiding trailer accidents - Ericka Nelson
I agree with all of this...I always walk the
trailer to check my hitch and tires and windows and truck tires, too. But,
I'm still buying that spare pin and stashing it somewhere. Hard to believe
the evil that exists in this world of ours.

I watched a rider leaving a camp literally plow up the
pavement of the road with the jack to her gooseneck. She hadn't pulled the
pin to snap it all the way up and there was a little hump leaving camp. :-P
I always check the hitch after going in for coffee or whatever. Take time
on a bumper hitch to feel of the nut on the bottom too. Twice through
the years mine has worked loose and been towards the bottom of the
threads. :-O
