Welcome to the site and congratulations on the new wheels! A couple words of caution on the hitch! Make sure you can see the flag when you are hitched. Reese says the pin won't go in unless the hitch is locked BUT THIS IS NOT TRUE!!!! If the handle is pulled back about an inch, the pin will go in, and the hitch will look latched but it isn't! Unless you can see the flag, you aren't locked in. Also, like most hitches, you need to back the truck up with the pin box slightly lower than the hitch so the hitch actually raises the front of the trailer as it slides in place. In other words, don't try to hook up by backing under the pin box and lowering it onto the hitch.
