Where I work we are getting rid of the B&W Companion hitches in favor of the Curt. Seems the pin holding the B&W closed is not fool-proof and a couple of trailers have unhitched. I looked at the new B&W on one of our trucks and can't believe there isn't a locking feature other than the pin holding the handle closed. Sure seems like a very poor design. I've been using Curt hitches in my own truck for many years without any bad issues.
Give me a break. ONLY thing that could happen is someone wanting to cause problems is removing the pin.
Simple fix that I would think any RV hauler would use is a SIMPLE padlock!
I think your story has more to do with the cost difference.
