So you really need to think outside the "box".... literally ... the bed of your truck ... which is a "box". How do you plan on using it when NOT towing.

I dont really get this argument. With the Andersen its consists of loosening a couple bolts, pulling a pin, and removing the light weight hitch. Honestly no harder than dealing with WD bars
Come up with something better...
