I've been towing for over 25 years and have never put grease on the hitch. Of course, I've always had smallish trailers. Maybe the heavier trailers need it? Anyway, i've never seen wear, and if I did, an $8 ball every 10 years is cheap enough to avoid the PITA.
I used to grease my balls until 25 or so years ago. :B
Then I stopped like tragusa3. Except my trailers weigh 7K or more. Do I have some wear? Yep, maybe a few thousands or so on my 86 TT. Nothing for me to worry about that's for sure.
I guess you could say I'm a greasetotaler now.
