Very much so, and articulate. They're obviously very successful prior to hitting the road, but still are fun to watch. Their videos are first class.

His towing findings, without a sway control hitch but with good fore and aft balance, seems a testament to towing 101. As a side note, the utuber found out, shells can be limiting for tail gate utilization with the trailer hitched up.

Well, towing on the ball solves the "front end separation" and frame flex issue, but opens another sway concern.
They tow long distances and never seem to have an issue.
The tailgate solution is to turn the head sideways (I did)
or find a longer shank. (Shells? autocorrect gotcha?)
e-Trailer has many shanks, and I like their videos where they put a tape measure on the shank because manufacturers don't all measure the same. Is a 16" shank overall length, between the holes, or rear to mounting holes?
