    While true. I think it's a regional thing like soda vs. pop. Down it Texas it's referred to as a reciever, or simply hitch. Up here in MI it's referred to as bumper pull even though it's a frame mounted reciever hitch.

    In either case to answer the ops question. It really depends on how well that trailer is built. Most consumers care more about weight than longevity. They only use it a few weeks a year, so it's no big deal. For commercial usage, it will quickly fall apart.
