Hensley versus Pro Pride 3?

Since i owned both, in the process of changing my hitch to one of these, I ended up buying one, and then the other. So I can give a pretty unbiased view on them both.

I ordered the first hitch. I arrived in rough shape, rougher that you should expect, long story...but it got sent back.

I ordered the second brand and decided to keep it.

They both towed well, even similar, if not more. They both handled well.

However, the first hitch was poorly painted, rust under the paint, wrong parts, and week service.


The second brand was much better. The parts were properly treated and painted, no rust and fit well.

I have had no issues w the second hitch. Like I said I had to send the Hensley back, it just wasn't good enough for the $$ paid.

Pro Pride 3 hitch was a lot more inspiring, and the future of PP# seems a lot stronger that its old competitor.
