    I see you've got that Holland aluminum 5th wheel plate. I wonder how well those hold up to the usual wears and tears.

    Yeah. You'd have to be careful not to scrape the plate against the trailer nose like you can get away with using a greased steel plate.

    When you own your own trailer or pull a trailer for someone and don't do drop and hooks the only time you ever on hook it's when you have to grease the fifth wheel once a month I never have to unhook
