B&W is supposed to be top of line , yet people drop their fifth wheels with them.
Say it ain't so!
It's EXTREMELY unlikely because of the SIMPLE solid NO questions if you are hitched system, I have heard of ONE and have seen ONE drop, both had their handle pinned open. Have heard of MANY others being dropped and have a pic of one but will not post at this time.
For $500 deducible I will depend on my eyes not another device. If I drop mine Y'all will be the first to know with pics!
I've never heard of anybody dropping their fiver while using an Andersen setup.
:B
True and I bet some do a pull test with it but IMHO it's not needed.
Wow ! I do agree, but very doubtful anyone would do a pull test. Not having the ball in the coupler on the Andersen would be about as inept as pinning open a B&W then driving off without doing a pull test. :) There is basically two steps with the Andersen one is lowering the pin box on the ball, and the other locking it .
While on the subject I have never heard what is the reasoning behind locking the B&W open :@ Having a hitch that stays open until backed into then it will close, there is no way I can keep it open when backing in .
