Had an incident last year coming home when one of our sewer hoes came out of the bumper tube and was dragging along I75.
The "new" trailers don't use the old style end caps to keep hoses inside and the new ones can pop off, gone forever and the hose can vibrate out. Whew!
I solved this by getting some 6" wood spikes from HD. Drilled bumper thru the end caps and the bottom. Dropped in a spike and there is no way I'll ruin or lose another hose.
