And the narrow space between the back of my truck and the front of my 5er is not enough to put bikes there. With tailgate down I have to be near straight on backing in to hookup so as not to hit the 5er with the tailgate corner.

Jim biased? Nah. Next you will say he is opiniated.

I know Jim will get me later
