I have the Q20 and like others has said it can be a pain to get latched in. At least until I figured out how. It seems the hitch likes the pin to be exactly centered to latch. That's very hard to do as it's usually slightly off one way or the other. My solution is the back into the pin until it partially latches and the pinbox is fully over the hitch, just not completely latched. Then I use the landing gear to lower the trailer until the weight comes off the landing gear. That allows the hitch and pin to square up. I then raise the trailer and the hitch will latch every time. Obviously the trailer has chocks behind the tires so it can't roll backwards during the time I am raising and lowering the trailer.
