Either you do it sooner, or it's not going to happen. You could spring for the $3k, install the Hensley, see what you think of it and then turn around and sell it on Hitchtrader if you decided you wanted to stay with the PR. While you might not get the full $3k, you probably could get almost $2500 for a "new" hitch and the new owner would probably spring for the $500 warrantee transfer.
Shipping the unit is a problem, cuz the main unit is HEAVY, but if you bought a new unit, you'd have the packaging from Hensley to re-use. To intall mine, I had to sit it on a box, let the coupler down on it and then close the coupler before I continued with the installation.
