Done the same thing myself! It's interesting how our subconscious minds note something wrong and give us those little nagging feelings -- I have learned not to ignore them...
Pete, we call it "Female Intuition," something you care to share with us?

RE: "Hitch hiked" The trooper said he'd seen this happen..... "many times"? Whoa!

Soon we'll be leaving for 3-4 weeks on the road. Before reading this thread never gave locking my trailer tongue to the tow any thought at all. In light of the potential for becoming a victim of a truly mean spirited 8-ball, I very much appreciate the heads up.

<blockquote>Bought a pin with a lock on it. My old pin becomes an emergency spare. Bought heavy chain and another lock which wraps up the tongue ball-clamping gizmo so it can't be lifted without a key. </blockquote>
