Anyone have any experience with this hitch?

 
No experience here but after looking at it, seems a bit pricey. Not sure how it's going to reduce tire wear on truck and trailer and overall maintenance? Kinda reminds me of the DMI hitches. They have the springs to help with the jerking, but in some ways it made it worse. I can see where this might make the ride between the truck/trailer ride like an old Cadillac, floating down the road which might be good or bad.
 
I thought this was going to a satirical post about how the generation after mine (Gen Y) can’t figure out how to operate a trailer lol.
 
But personally, I’ve never been so uncomfortable driving with my trailer I felt I needed this. Seems like extra moving parts to fail.
