    Towing noise

    On a recent road trip, we went over a significant bump (like a dike) at way too fast of a speed. Our truck was already descending while the trailer was still rising. If ever the hitch would fail, we thought this would be the time. But, aside from a few items thrown around in the trailer, we...
