Do I need a new trailer hitch?

My truck is 9 years old and the hitch is rusty. I haven't towed much with it but I am getting a new TT. I was wondering if being old and a little rusty compromises the integrity and reliability of the hitch. I don't want to spend the extra money unless it's an issue.

Should I get a new one?

Thanks.
