Anyone using this one?

MCHITCH it's less visible than the one you're looking at and half the cost.

I don't think I can use the mchitch with my mudflap. I'll have to call them and see, but I can't give up the flap.

+1 on Hitchdoc I am waiting on mine, they said they will have them ready in March. They told me that they have 5 out for testing right now. I was talking to some folks and they said that the tube will rust from the inside out.

If you can take a close up picture of your mudflap and how it is installed then send it to info@mchitch.com with your contact information. I will be happy to take a look and should be able to tell you about any mounting problems you may or may not encounter.

Thanks,
Todd@MCHITCH
