LOL!! Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water..........
tell us how you *really* feel Bob.

I don't think Hensley is necessarily better..... I think they are both terrific.
The Pullrite does basically what the Hensley does which is prevent fishtailing
and the tail wagging the dog syndrome. People who have PRs seem to be quite
happy with them. The reason I didn't want one, and it was tough for the $$
difference, is I didn't want to mess with the underside of the 'burb and I
liked knowing I could transfer it to another trailer.

This from someone who has both one HH and the PR on different vehicles:
<<Another point in the Hensley's favor is that it stays with the trailer. It
attaches to any tow vehicle with a standard 2" receiver. Pull-Rite makes
a different unit for each tow vehicle. Unless you replace your tow vehicle
with an identical unit, you need to buy a new receiver. Last time I did
that, in 1993, it cost me about $700 for a receiver. If I had a Hensley I could
have exchanged that attachment bar if I needed a different offset. I think
they exchange for free.>>

There are a lot of people who think $2500.00 is excessive for a hitch.....the
$900.00 price tag on the Pullrite is definitely in its favor. A lot of people
think $900.00 is excessive for a hitch...... people who have used Reese (or
whatever) for many years and never had a problem..... Personally, I don't
trust my ability to hande the truck and trailer in a fishtail situation so for
me the $2500 was money well spent. If I couldn't have spent the $2500.00 I
would have definitely spent the $900.00 for a Pullrite.
