Comparison of B&W BWBMHD30011 and Curt C45312 Ball Mount
Question:
While either the BandW or the Curt will work for me, one says made in America and the other says assembledinch in America. Both say made in USA on their labels. Is the only difference which person wrote the copy for the item or is the Curt product derived from overseas parts? If I was lazy and didnt ask I would just order the BW. But work is slow with Coronavirus...….
