Thanks guys, first, I do have the original 3 speed on the column, I am in a rural area so no city driving and being a ranch hand, we classify hitches as either bumper pull (meaning a frame attached hitch not mounted to the bumper per se, and a goose neck hitch. The brakes on my truck work great and honestly I would rarely if ever throw a horse in it. Mostly just the show of the truck and horse trailer era for shows and display. I really do appreciate all the feed back, positive or negative, as my wife is not much help....LOL It helps me think things through as I am sure none of you have acted out on impulse....LOL
