In all seriousness, dude: Thanks for your service. Vietnam vets definitely caught the short end of the straw. I entered the Army in 1976, just after Vietnam wound down. I served with a lot of Vietnam veterans, and watched how others were treated in public and private. Talk about the "forgotten generation"...

My 15-year-old Moon & Tree was on a 2005 Silverado I sold when I bought the Maverick.

Diode Dynamics light, works great and comes out in less than 1 minute but I'm lazy. Bike rack is in minimum 3 times a week summertime and trailer few time a month. I'm gonna use the harness to trigger some rigid reverse lights from my old truck.
This would be great for someone who does not use the hitch.

How was the wiring for this? Easy?

Plug and play. Less than one minute. Mine will be on market place soon. Found another way to wire up my other lights

I have one, but I do NOT leave it in the receiver. I keep it under the back seat. I have busted my shins one too many times on that darn thing! It hurts. A LOT!

Not only that, but leaving it in place can have unintended consequences. With my last vehicle, I used to only put my ball mount in when I was going to tow my boat. After a while, I just left it in.

After a couple of years, I needed to pull it out and put it on another vehicle. It wouldn't budge. I whacked it HARD with a sledge hammer... still stuck. I took it to my friend's garage where he heated the receiver up with a torch and hammered on the ball mount with an impact hammer. Still wouldn't move.

I live in the Northeast, in winter road salt country. It had rusted, and the swelling from the rust had it pretty much fused in place. It took about an hour of intense heating and pounding with a sledge and impact hammer to finally get it out.

Now, the only thing I leave in my receiver is a good coating of Corrosion-X.

The question is what does Ford have in it that makes it so hard to supply?

I was going to just buy one of those rubber stoppers but figured I'd ping this enthusiast community to see if there was anything cooler instead Thank you in advance!

I'm building a "T" bar to go up to hold a canoe

What's hard to supply is so many of them because the small truck is so practical that everyone wants one. If it wasn't so great there wouldn't be the demand and they would be easy to get.
