+1 for Pullrite.
Best to aim a little low and glide up the capture plate.
Someone will prove me wrong but I can not remember reading a Pullrite that dropped a trailer.
Anyway is seems rare compared to others.
I have not seen one or heard of one either.
I have heard of only one B&W and it was because the guy had locked the handle open for some reason and forgot to close it.
I totally agree on the operator error theory but there has to be something to make it easier with some hitches.
If you look at a B&W for example that has a 1"thick jaw and your kingpin is sitting on top of the jaws there will be a large gap between plates but with jaws that ate only 1/2" this that gap becomes less visible especially at night.
I am no. 2 . I droped mine unhitching. First time with a fiver and forgot to lower the landing gear :)
That sucks!
Only two that is not bad. I have paid attention to this bed damage thing for quite a few years.
