I saw a lifted truck the other day, and not only did it not have a trailer hitch, it didn’t even have a spot where one could be installed. I don’t know much, but it seems to me that if you’re not using your pickup truck for hauling, then you shouldn’t even have one.
Generally if it doesn’t have a hitch receiver you can put a ball hitch on the bumper in front of the license plate, but those are rated for less weight and are useless if the truck is lifted sooo
The hitch is bolted to the frame, if you don’t have one installed there’s no visual cue that you can’t install one
Some people need a truck without needing to tow a trailer, I had a client that had a lifted one to go fill up machinery out in the woods, his bed was a huge diesel tank with a pump, would you have expected him to do that with a Yaris?
A lot of people call the draw bar/ball the “trailer hitch,” so I took the comment to mean that the truck in question didn’t have a hitch/receiver mounted.
and not only did it not have a trailer hitch, it didn’t even have a spot where one could be installed
Oh no?
The bit about you not knowing much was right though, I’ll give you that.
Not everyone needs a truck to tow is my point so judge all you want, you don’t know what that person is doing with the truck outside of the little glimpse you took at it.

Maybe they haul a bedful of bricks daily but never need to tow anything?
I can almost guarantee the bed of that particular truck has never seen a brick, or any other building material.
No no no, you don’t get it, trucks bad!

I saw a lifted truck with two cab extensions and like 3 feet of bed.

He can do it on a fucking unicycle for all I care, that’s not at all what I’m saying.
