[QUOTE="blackdogon57, post: 4133561, member: 22905"] If you are going to be hauling every day you want a gooseneck for many of the reasons listed above. Easier to tow/hookup, harder to steal, friends who want to borrow can't tow it. Much easier to get in and out of tight spots. If you are traveling bad roads it is is only a matter of time before you hit a dead end or have to turn around without much space. I know a few guys who have caved in the sides of their trucks with bumper hitches when making tight turns. The down side with big dumpers is that they are pretty heavy dry. My 8x14 gooseneck weighs 4400# dry, But can hold 9500# cargo. I still have lots of room in the pickup box to put other stuff. [/QUOTE]
