Other Benefits:
1.You will never drop your Fiver, its either on the ball or not.
2.Hookup is slower but gentler as you raise and lower the trailer onto/off the ball to hookup or disconnect without ramming or need for wheel chocks (in most cases).
3. If necessary you can hitch from 0 degrees (straight back) to any angle your truck can reach relative to the Fiver and uneven terrain doesn't matter.
Tell #1 to my truck's bed, with the dent in it that my gooseneck trailer put there when #2 didn't work because I didn't have chocks on the trailer and it rolled off the ball because I wasn't =quite= centered on it. Knock wood, I've not dropped my FW off my Companion.
