The manufacturer puts a disclaimer on there to protect themselves, as was well stated by David R. in post #16 above.

I have one on my pickup and have pulled my original Mullins trailer without a problem. It was reviewed in the Model A Times by John Lavoy, and I have read reports of quite a few others that have used this hitch without a problem. It is stouter and much better engineered than most "home-made" hitches I have seen.

It also does the job of an excellent flag holder!
