YES! That is why I sent my general manager Jeff over with his F250. It has one of those $400 aluminum adjustable hitches on it. But, even with it adjusted all the way up, and the long dovetail extensions, and some blocks underneath, he said it was really close. Fortunately, we have hauled some real low ones but even cars like the Lambo Gallardo have a short nose (since most are rear or mid-engine design).. These suckers have a LONG front overhang.

But, we have a "highly engineered" set of step-up 2X8's that are about 5 feet long and are beveled. This allows the nose to lift gradually higher over the first five feet to clear the ramps until the nose goes over the dovetails. Plus, our dual axle setup tilts backwards inches from the ground as the vehicle drives up on it. It is set up very well for low riders and exotics. The other bitch? These cars are completely flat paneled underneath for aerodynamics so there is almost no where to tie them down evenly. Basically, they are twice as hard to tow as cars that cost twice as much!

Just funny that you mention that. You CAN'T make that up unless you saw one
