Having fun thinking about (maybe) getting a travel trailer. FINALLY!!!

As part of this process, I was wondering what anyone might suggest for a tongue lock for my trailer. I will need to keep it at a storage place, so am thinking that a lock of some kind might be a good idea.

Suggestions, please!

I always used a lock on my trailers. They are inexpensive and definitely worth having.

Do you have a brand of tongue lock that you favor?

Thanks.

Amazon has many but most people around here use this type

What Alice said and this.

I use this: https://www.amazon.com/Reese-Towpower-7005300-Brass-Coupler/dp/B001IH2T4E/ref=sr_1_12?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1521119058&sr=1-12&keywords=trailer+coupler+lock

You can find it cheaper at Walmart. I've used the other ones people posted but this is super simple. No way to get bolt cutters around it easily. I also padlock my chains under the a-frame so they can't tow it away with just the chains. That happened to someone in another rv forum.

This is the one I had... https://www.amazon.com/OxGord-Coupler-T ... 2G7V155RBV

Just remember nothing is perfect. Thieves are lazy and will normally take the easy target, so the goal is not to be the easy target.
