Found out the Curt model 15845 is not for my truck as I was led to believe. Do they makes salesmen out of anyone that just walks in?
That model is for a wide body commercial truck. Goes to show you. One guy at the hitch place picked it out for me but today when I called back another - more experienced person said it would not fit my truck. A vendor confirmed this.
You've got to be careful. If I hadn't asked more questions I'd be getting exercise by bench pressing the wrong hitch under the bed.
I have ordered the Curt 15810. Rating is 20,000/2700 and is a 2 1/2". Costs less and no drilling. Will install myself and save $82.
Done.
Thanks for the help.
Now on to the trailer hitch. WD no WD. Sway no sway. :D Before any comments I already have that thread going.
