I have a B and W on my Ford, its ok, all thought the powder coat wore off it in about 3 months, and I live in sunny CA!), the install was easy, but I dislike having to get into the bed ot flip it.
I was looking at the Putnam Lock and load (http://www.trailerhitches.com/heavy-...view&key=PT525)
and like how I can pop it up from the wheelwell.
Anyone use this?

A rancher friend of mine told me had always had problem with mud binding it up plus he also said he had a blow out one time and bent up the handle.

I have the putnam, works well and easy to install. I'm not sure on how the paint is doing since I have the inner fenders with the handle sticking through. Out of sight, out of mind!

I own one and if you want it come and get it. Most worthless piece of crud I have ever wasted money on.
After about a year of being in I have to crawl under the truck to assist the raising process with a small sledge hammer. The poc has fallen twice while in tow eating a hole in my bed and spray in liner. I really want to swap it for a B&W, like the other truck has. I think if I have to keep it a manual latch is in order. ( Read a welder).

Anyone else really like the Putman, or know of another site where I can search on it?
I am ordering this week and like the idea of it, but it if going to be a problem, i will get the B and W

Good choice, you won't be disappointed with the B&W hitch.
