I'm sure someone will soon. I'll be getting one for a bike rack. Best way to carry nice bikes is on a hitch rack--especially if you have a vert.

Had a custom hitch installed on my '79 Mustang by U-haul. Worked fine for small trailers, but I could feel it trying to move the car -- especially when slowing. Depending on your load & type of driving (mountain vs highway), you might have issues with stopping distance & brake fade.

How much of a hassle is it to trailer your jet ski? I never owned one and worry that I will spend all this money on it and never use it. I am anywhere from 15 minutes to 60 minutes from the Gulf of Mexico with awesome spots for a waverunner. Think that trailering it to the Gulf is a big deal or is it such a blast that you care less about driving your waverunner to the water?

Jet ski's and wave runners are about the easiest watercraft to load and unload (power load). As to how much you'll use it, I have no idea that's up to you. They are alot of fun though.

Hardest parts learning to back down the ramp and learning ramp etiquette.

I've got an F-350 4 wheel drive pickup that I want to take down to the local track. What do you think I could add to her to give a little extra punch out of the gate?

while I assume your question is sarcastic in nature, if your truck is a PSD then you could make it smoke a factory 05 GT in the 1/4 mile. (given a LOT of $$$)

Don't believe me? Go to dieselstop.com or ford-trucks.com and look around. Full size f-350 crewcabs running 12-13 econd 1/4's
