Tacoma TRD Off Road
I picked up a TRD off road recently and took in on some pretty mild trails. Surprisingly i've already hit the hitch a couple times while maneuvering through cross ditches. Normally I wouldn't care much as a hitches can be replaced.. except for the new tacoma has an integrated hitch that's welded to the frame. Curious if others have concerns about this. I don't want to destroy the hitch to the point where I cannot tow anything. Do people get skid plates for hitches?

I just picked one up thanks for the link! The hitch is steel but scraping it on rocks every weekend will eventually do bad things to it.

Like cause some surface rust?
