Welcome home also, brother! Maybe not me but some who came after me. Was in country 69-70, 1/505 inf 82nd Airborne for 6 months, then 1st Logistical Command 12 months. Stayed an extra 6 months so I would not have to serve stateside. My "attitude" toward not career soldiers but "lifers" might have been an issue stateside due to the "lifer" E-6 and Warrant I seriously clashed with while in Vietnam
I was a draft avoider, didn't want to go to Nam but the Navy had other plans for me. They kept me for 4 years nearly to the day, and they let me out just two days after the Paris Peace Accords was signed. But I guess this is supposed to be a Maverick discussion, right? So, here's a picture of the hitch area cover I installed yesterday.

And it looks Damn good - probably the best looking job I've seen thus far.

Although I didn't "actively" try to avoid the draft I was thinking I was not going to be because everyone I went with to get our physical had already been, and I hadn't, but ....
Anyway, is it removable to get to the pin hole???

Looks great. Can I pay you to make me one?

From pictures others have supplied, the "pin hole" is fully accessible aft of the bumper - looks easy to access.

The cover doesn't affect functionality to the best of my knowledge.

Pin hole is about 1-1/2" further out from the cover.

I'm pretty sure I'm not looking for work, but you should PM me so we can discuss it further.

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.

Is this plug-n-play? I have a 2023 XL Hybrid on the way. Do I need some extra wiring harness?
