Three times in the past week or so, I've noticed something I don't
recall seeing befo someone with a high-riding pickup or SUV who had
two to six inches of drop hitch -- installed upside down.

Two of them had a trailer on, and in the worst case, a flatbed behind a
Ford Excursion, the upside-down apparatus combined with the tall
vehicle to leave it sitting at maybe a twenty-degree angle. I'm
surprised he didn't leave his trailer taillights on the speed bumps --
or his cargo on the road going up a steep hill.

Just for completeness, I went to a local store and looked at the
catalogue from one of the big makers of trailering tools and toys.
Sure enough, it contained not only instructions but photographs showing
what things are supposed to look like when properly rigged. Somehow
people are spending money on an accessory that they probably need --
and using it exactly wrong.
Fishtailing soon down an Interstate near you...
