"Hitch-N-Tow" hitching guide system

Buffalo Creek Marine Fabrication located in Angier, NC custom fabricates the "Hitch-N-Tow" system. They provided a system for me to try out and review. One of the things I really like about this system is that it is custom made of stainless steel. I like it so much that we've added the Hitch-N-Tow system to our eStore. If you like it you can order securely in our store by going here:

BCMF also offers a complete stainless steel package that includes the hitch and ball. If you are interested in one of these email me and I'll get you a price.

The BCMF literature indicates: No more getting in and out of your tow vehicle over and over to hitch up. The BCMF "Hitch-N-Tow" guide system enables you to hitch up to your trailer by yourself in less than 3 minutes.

I've attached some photos of the system so you could see how easy it is to install and use. I used my own trailer hitch and ball as the basic "Hitch-N-Tow" system includes the "Base Plate" and the "Guide Plate".

Simply mount the base plate between your hitch and ball, where it will stay connected.

When you are ready to hook up your boat or trailer simply drop the Guide plate into the base plate holes and back up to the trailer. The '' Hitch-N-Tow '' puts your trailer coupler over the ball everytime and saves your bumper and licence plate from damage.

After you've hitched the trailer remove the Guide Plate and off you go!

I must admit I have my doubts, But it sure looks simple. Even though I have backing sensor, that lets me know I am there, I still must be carefull so I do not over shoot and hit my truck. I did that once it cost me $ 650.00 big ones. So YES I would be interested.

I have to admit I probably would not buy this. My 170 is small enough were I don't have to use it. I take the tail gate off my truck anyway-still a novice and it's the only way I can back the boat up without tying up the boat ramp for a half an hour

hitch n tow

I have a 16 foot utility trailer I use regularly as well as the boat trailer. I bought a hitch n tow from Wally World (clearanced at 30 bucks). I like it because I am usually hooking up by myself. While the boat is parked on a slab and has a wheel on the jack (allowing me to roll it manually to line it up) the other trailer is outside with a fixed jack. The hitch n tow works well. I wouldn't have paid 60 dollars but it was worth it for 30.

I really wouldn't anyway, but I bought the new crew max Toyota truck and the back up camera on there lets you get it exactly where you need it. I was good before, but this takes all the guess work out of it, and it's a standard feature on the truck.

Seem like something for rookies. And it looks kinda costly. Although I only go in and out only once a year I'd rather spend the money on bait and fuel.

Guess I'm a rookie.

I like it cause it has saved my chrome bumper from getting scratched up when finding the hitch backing up.
