I had looked at one at Hershey AACA meet and liked what I saw. If I had a money tree (mine died) in the yard I might have bought another brand if I liked what I saw but I am well pleased with the one I have. Also out truckd (F250 and F350) weigh 7500 lbs so there is a 1500 lb cushion on weight. I have had mine 3 yrs and no issues.
Just my humble opinion, other may (will) differ.

Most of these things come as a package and have to assembled to some degree so you can just say that it's built in ________ (insert your state). I see it all the time when guys have a car that they assembled ( and perhaps modified in the case of hotrods) and they say that THEY built it.
