Well, I have to put in my two cents worth. First of all, the ball is pushing the HITCH ... but the rest of the trailer weight is being pulled by the hitch. So the towing vehicle is towing the trailer.
Secondly, I don't know which pilot said it, Ben ... but I understand it. I think it's that way for all young men, no? No matter what you are doing, you are thinking about the ladies. When you are with the ladies, you try to impress them by talking about what you do for a living.
we may be onto something here.
Wait a minute, let me grab my slide rule out of my pocket protector. If I was to take my pointer and middle fingers and stick them (one each) in randy's hugh nose and then led him to the lake would I be pushing or pulling him?
Hmmmmmm?
Maybe pulling is a reaction of pushing something?
Work is a way to support a fishing habit and for those who do not know how to fish.
I was laughing so hard I forgot what to post.
After thinking bout it, OK, the ball pushes the trailer at the POC. (that is point of contact) At what point does the pulling/towing come in to play.
does all the weight need to be in front to be pushed as in the traditional sense? At first I would have argued that it was being pulled, now I am not sure.
piper that is another way to look at it????

Maybe this is why they put "IN TOW" on the back window of vehicles. They could not agree if they were pushing or pulling it?????

Piper that maybe considered towing Randy to the lake????

Kinda reminds me of when my HS Physics teacher asked us: What makes a car go? His answer: the road, it pushes the car forward.
