The response I got from Jameson was quick, thoughtful, well explained and something I had not considered. This site has been very helpful.

I posted a question about using a specific 4 bike rack with my travel trailer. My question was answered quickly and while the specific item I wanted to use was not recommended the answer I recieved provided one that was. I checked out 4 bike hauler in the answer and after watching the posted video and the customer feedback (photos) I purchased it. I use both EBay and Amazon and Etrailer out did them both on customer service and shipping time. I am 45 miles from the shipping location... I got the items less than 48 hrs after I paid for them.

I really am not to happy about having an Unsightly trailer hitch on my Audi A7
I would prefer a truck mounted unit that I can remove when not needing it
What would you recommend?

Kyle analyzed the information I gave him on my towing issue and demonstrated his expertise with a well thought-out response. He struck with me through several rounds of clarifying questions. He provided an educational video that cleared-up a misconception of the issue on my part. I will be ordering parts and following his suggests to solve my issue.

My question regarding a choice between two tire wheel sizes was answered, however, I would of liked to have know WHY the etrailer expert selected the size that he did. Also a more detailed answer that perhaps included pros and cons of either size. My bad for not asking for more information in my question.

I purchased this Trailair air ride from our 5th dealer here in town. They never reallt explained to me how to air up the system before I left. I asked etrailer about how I should air up the bag, with a load and attached to my truck or while tt is standing on its own. Etrailer Jon was very helpful and sent me a link to a video on how to install the new pin box and how to air it up! Thanks Jon G!

Answer was very clear and complete. The best part was the short video that was attached to the answer. Very easy to understand.

I was trying to find a heavy duty variable height hitch for my 6" lifted F150. Brint came back with a recommendation for the Gen-Y hitch which is perfect for my application and also called up the manufacturer to ask them a design question about the hitch while I waited on the phone before I made the purchase - very helpful.

After reading the guide to the W/D hitch it's a E-Z hitch Trunnion type 92-00-1000. The guide states that this type of hitch you can back up with a turn and should not have any problems. Since all the bolts were loose still can't help thinking they were not tighten to spec before I left the shop. The guide does state after the first hundred mile to check but this was extreme. Thanks for your answer but still have my doubts J. Holt

I have been trying to price out adding a trailer hitch and trailer wiring to my 2013 Chevy Express van. Other website could not or would not answer my questions. Not only was my question answered but suggested items to purchase were also provided. This allowed me to make comparisons and confirm that I was making the correct choices for my van as my situation. I feel very confident that I will get the right items I need to add a safe and low cost towing package. You have saved me time and money. Thank you very much.

I have a 2006 palomino pop-up camper. Etrailer told me this one looks to be the correct one. Unfortunately it isn't. The rail and lock are to close to the edge for it to work. I added the pictures to show.
