Why ProPride Retains Exceptional Resale Value

Most towing equipment loses value the moment it’s installed. A few seasons later, it’s outdated, worn, or replaced by something “better.” But the ProPride 3P® Hitch is a rare exception. Even years after purchase, ProPride hitches consistently command strong prices on the secondary market—and often sell quickly.

That resale strength isn’t accidental. It’s the direct result of engineering, performance, and long-term relevance.


Resale Value Starts With Solving the Problem Completely

Products that partially solve a problem rarely retain value. They get replaced.

The ProPride 3P® does something most hitches never achieve: true trailer sway elimination, not reduction. Because it eliminates the problem at the mechanical level, there’s no “next upgrade” owners are waiting for.

When a product still solves the problem perfectly years later, demand stays high.


Why Used ProPride Hitches Are Always in Demand

On the used market, buyers are often:

Experienced RVers upgrading from friction-based hitches

Owners who’ve researched sway elimination extensively

Towing families who want safety without trial-and-error

These buyers already know what works—and what doesn’t. That knowledge fuels consistent demand for ProPride, even secondhand.


Durability That Buyers Can Trust

Resale value depends heavily on confidence. Buyers need to trust that a used product still performs as intended.

The ProPride 3P® inspires that trust because of:

Solid steel construction

Thick control links and hitch box

One-piece yoke design

Minimal wear-dependent components

Unlike friction-based hitches, performance doesn’t degrade gradually over time. A well-maintained ProPride works today the same way it did when new.


Adaptability Makes ProPride Future-Proof

Another major factor in resale strength is adaptability.

The ProPride 3P® features:

An adjustable hitch bar

Compatibility with multiple tow vehicle heights

Flexibility across different trailers and setups

This means a used ProPride can fit:

A half-ton today

A three-quarter-ton tomorrow

A completely different RV next year

Buyers aren’t locked into a single configuration, which widens the market.


Scarcity Meets Reputation

ProPride hitches aren’t mass-market products. They’re purpose-built towing systems with a reputation that spreads primarily through word of mouth and owner experience.

That creates a powerful combination:

Limited supply on the used market

High trust among informed buyers

When supply is low and demand is high, value holds.


Why Owners Rarely Sell Unless They Stop Towing

One of the clearest indicators of resale strength is owner behavior.

ProPride owners typically sell their hitch only when:

They stop RVing altogether

They upgraded to a fifth-wheel setup

They don’t sell because it “didn’t work” or because they found something better.

That’s rare in the towing world.


Resale Value Reflects Long-Term Cost Efficiency

A strong resale market changes how the ProPride 3P® should be evaluated financially.

Instead of asking:

How much does it cost?

Experienced owners ask:

“How much value does it retain?”

When a hitch can be resold for a significant portion of its original price, the true cost of ownership drops dramatically—often below that of multiple cheaper hitches replaced over time.


Why Buyers Trust a Used ProPride More Than New Alternatives

Many buyers prefer a used ProPride over a brand-new friction-based hitch because:

The technology is proven

The design hasn’t been made obsolete

Performance isn’t dependent on wear surfaces

In towing, trust beats novelty—and ProPride has earned it.


Final Takeaway

Exceptional resale value doesn’t happen by accident.

The ProPride 3P® Hitch holds its value because it:

Solves trailer sway completely

It is built to last for decades

Adapts as towing needs change

Maintains relevance across generations of RVs

That’s why ProPride isn’t just a smart towing upgrade—it’s a smart long-term investment.
