    A guy down the street from me that parks his 5th wheel in his front yard has the hitch lock and one of those on every wheel (4 total). I just find it sad society has disintegrated to the point we have to bolt everything down or lock everything up to keep someone from taking it.

    I use my tongue lock and a heavy gauge cable/master lock combo to lock my ATV trailer to the fence. It is like you said a deterrent. If someone wanted it bad enough, they'd get it, but my aim is to make them look and then decide to move on to an easier target.

    Yea, I agree 110%. That's why this lock is so effective. It's more of a deterrent than a guarantee.

    When I rode Harleys and we went to big meets, with thousands of bikers you had to protect your shit. I used hardened locks on everything. One in the tongue and then this thing between the wheels on the street side:

    https://www.amazon.com/X-Chock-Whee...ocphy=9007894&hvtargid=pla-365326661179&psc=1

    Not only do they chock the wheels and keep them from rolling on any incline, you can add a lock to it as well.

    That Trimax chock just screams "Move Along".

    I was never a fan of the headlight hoops...until I hit a deer. Then I realized if I would of had a plate bumper with full hoops I probably would have spent the weekend laughing about hitting the thing...rather than an extremely stressful weekend stuck 3 hours from home with an 18 month old and a travel trailer I had nothing to tow it with because my truck was damaged badly enough to be towed (and in the shop for 10 weeks). It was then I decided I could sacrifice some vanity for better protection if I ever ordered a bumper...:rofl:
