Couldn't agree more. Not that the Invishitch isn't nice, it's a great product. But it's very expensive and, if you're leasing (as most of us are), 1500 bucks is a LOT to spend on a car that you're going to give back in 36 months. Compared to the 500 bucks that a similar option costs on a Mercedes ML, of which, you only pay ~40% of the cost. It's the difference between ~50 bucks a month and ~5 bucks a month. That's a huge swing, and, for a truck that's offered in diesel, ridiculous that you can't get a hitch option right from the factory that's cheap and can be residualized into the lease.
