I didn't know you were that old!
Two points about greasing the hitch:
I just saw the hitch on an old work trailer that belongs to a friend of
mine. It has almost worn through on the front. He never lubes it.
When I installed a new hitch on my truck I splurged and bought a new chrome
ball. Even though I had cleaned the trailer hitch, the ball, after 40 miles
of use, has lost some of the plating.
I now grease the ball.
