I didn't see that, but I may have been looking at last years model on display. The Kuat has an expanding hitch that locks in very nice.

It might just be me too lwg. I may be overestimating how much they are going to move back there. When we get back to Denver tonight I'm going to put the rack on the back of the dually with some...
