What does locking the RV to the hitch accomplish?
It will keep someone from pulling the handle and have the possibility of the RV disconnecting from the hitch. Yes it can and has happened.
Do you ever look in your rearview mirror while towing? Its right there... Might be a concern with a traditional 5er hitch that would just slide off, but its not like its going to jump off the ball without some serious effort.
On the other hand someone could just as easily pull the latch on my B&W Turnoverball so kind of defeats the purpose of having a lock on the Andersen anyways:P
The TurnoverBall latch will NOT pull with the Andersen torqued down same with the Companion. The fact is The roads in this Country are bad enough in places that the 5er could jump off the Andersen no problem. I do agree it won't happen as easily with the Andersen style hitch than a conventional hitch.
