Yeah that would be the only concern for me about no hitch.

Looks great tho. Cleaned up the **** end of the truck a ton.

Yeah, I definitly like the look of it and I think that I can come up with something to weld up under there to add a little protection. Then I can have the looks of the pan with some of the protection I had with the hitch/bumper.

No, I wasn't angry when I was making my case about hitches. There is a difference about being passionate about a subject and being angry. To me, I couldn't fathom not wanting to maximize the potential of my truck. Yes, you can get A LOT of work done with just a bed, but the amount a truck can tow is infinitely more than its payload ability. Furthermore, sometimes you simply just need a hitch if you want to rent equipment or a trailer to perform a certain project. Certainly some people obviously don't envision ever doing a project that would entail needing more than their bed and that's fine; I was just stating my opinion, no harm there. Now, what is mean is trying to make a connection with the amount of mufflers I have had on my truck and the integrity of my input; there's no linearity there besides implying my comments are moot. Jusjay, that was a low shot, and I'm particularly disappointed hearing that come from you..
