Last summer , somewhere in New Hampshire ,my 24 ft toyhauler at Wal-Mart for the nite ! A small red car pulled up beside and played "RAP ' music real , real loud . I pushed the panic button on my key fob for about ten seconds , lights flashing , horns blowing , inter-continent missiles , . He took the hint and moved . I thought it was all over !
Next morn about three miles across N.H. on rt 4 or rt 2 , all hell broke loose , trailer brakes stopped me dead . Some one had pulled the pin that held the hitch into the receiver . Chocked trailer , reinstall ball mount , hitched up and was on my way in eleven minutes .
We now check that pin constantly . I am sure it was revenge , that fellow in the Wal-mart lot was selling somtin out his windows . No damage as trailer never hit the ground or hit the truck . Only damage was I had to go back to Wal-mart and buy new underwear ! Yes,chains should catch trailer before ground !
