I suspect you'll have more problems than you know what to do with if, God forbid, you have an accident or run into a CHiPy in need of some Preparation H.

It's my understanding that the highway traffic / safety laws are pretty much uniform across NA. Ours here specifically states something to the effect of a hitch must be rigidly, permanently and securely attached to the frame of the towing vehicle.

It was worded such for two reasons, to stop those chain on U-haul type temporary hitches, and to stop tow trucks from making up a sandwich affair that clamped onto the stinger to pull a trailer from.

BTW, for what it's worth, if you are renting for 1+ days the rental yards usually move the hoe for you free. Up here they carry mini excavators in the back of the truck, not on a trailer.

Best of luck.
