Unlocking The Power Of Gooseneck Hitches In North Bay, ON

April 11, 2024 Dev Ayyan

Having the right equipment is essential when towing heavy loads. Enter the gooseneck hitch—a reliable and sturdy solution for hauling trailers with ease. At True-Centre Auto Service in North Bay, Ontario, we understand the importance of quality and durability when it comes to your towing needs. Our range of hitches are designed to make towing a breeze, offering convenience, safety, and peace of mind on the road.

What Is A Gooseneck Hitch?

A gooseneck hitch is a type of trailer hitch that mounts in the bed of a pickup truck. Unlike traditional bumper-mounted hitches, gooseneck hitches are installed directly into the truck bed, providing a more stable and secure connection for towing heavy loads. This setup consists of a hitch ball mounted on a steel plate that is bolted or welded to the truck frame, offering superior strength and durability.

Advantages Of Gooseneck Hitches:

Increased Stability: By placing the hitch ball directly over the truck’s rear axle, gooseneck hitches distribute the weight of the trailer more evenly, resulting in improved stability and control while towing.
Higher Towing Capacity: Gooseneck hitches can tow heavier loads than traditional bumper-mounted hitches, making them ideal for hauling large trailers, RV’s, and other heavy-duty equipment.
Ease of Maneuverability: Gooseneck hitches’ design allows for tighter turns and better maneuverability, making them a preferred choice for navigating tight spaces and challenging terrain.
Versatility: Gooseneck hitches are compatible with a wide range of trailers, including gooseneck trailers, horse trailers, flatbeds, and more, making them a versatile option for various towing needs.

Through these doors walk a dedicated team of individuals, is just not enough to describe the team at true centre. The dedication that is clearly shown in each individual screams volumes in my eyes. From the front counter to the back shop. It's a family feel. Your at home. Come in sit down with them and you truly experience excellent service. I can't say enough good things about the team here. This has to be the best team in town and I truly wouldn't go anywhere else. Thanks again true centre. Till next time. ❤️

I had a great experience with Alex during my car purchase. He was extremely knowledgeable and helped me inspect the vehicle from a mechanical point of view before I made my decision. He carefully checked the engine, transmission, suspension, brakes, and other important components, explaining everything in a way that was easy to understand. His honest advice gave me confidence that I was making the right choice, and he never rushed or pressured me. If you’re buying a used car and want someone who genuinely looks out for your best interests, I highly recommend Alex. His expertise and attention to detail made the whole process much less stressful.

Trev Jul 7, 2026

Always had great service there for the 30 years I have been using them. The ladies at the front are always so nice and polite too. The service manager comes and explains everything to you and the mechanics are always top notch on the repairs.
Lise Lajeunesse Jul 7, 2026

Very professional and friendly service. I spoke directly with the technician and was automatically provided with a description, photos and videos describing the issues and repair. Take all of your vehicle needs to them!
Claude Jul 7, 2026

True-Centre is now my go-to garage. They work well with my warranty and do a lot of the heavy lifting concerning insurance and coverage of work. I also really appreciate the diagnostic report being emailed to me, so I have a clear picture of what is going to need work and what should be prioritized. I love that they loan a car out to you if you need work on your vehicle but need transportation; this has been a life saver for me as I drive to Temiscaming and back everyday. The mechanics also have no issue explaining things if needed and a HUGE shout-out to Kalee as she's been a huge help in figuring stuff out for my car with scheduling and warranty coverage. The waiting room also offers complimentary beverages; hot or cold. Their prices are a little higher than average garages in the area, but factoring in how smoothly things go with servicing, I don't mind paying a little bit more. They are a business, after all, and have to pay their employees. I can't recommend them enough!!!
Em Beaudette Jul 7, 2026

Sean Murphy Jun 6, 2026

Great customer interactions and reminders of your appointments. I honestly have no complaints.
Julie McCallum Jun 6, 2026

I booked an appointment with them for a rattling noise in my truck. They performed some inspections but couldn’t find anything wrong. However, they gave me some great advice, and the best part was that they didn’t charge me a dime! Unlike other shops that charge for a consultation right away, they were honest and helpful. For me, this is the best shop I’ve been to so far
Ranran Salvador Jun 6, 2026

Jackie Grenon Jun 6, 2026

True-centre Auto Service is more than a multi generational family business. It's a business that is quickly moving into the next gen of car care. They have state of the art equipment and know how to use it to look after my vehicle, 5 star customer service, and I leave the visit feeling looked after. It was very pleasant and personal. Even during my wait I had access to shuttle service, pop, water, juice, coffee, candy, and popcorn. All free! I can see why this business has held onto customers generation after generation! In years to come people will be taking their flying saucers for servicing I'm sure!!! Keep up the great work. I'll be back.

I was very recently passing through North Bay, The last stretch of a 4 Day drive from Saskatchewan on my way to see My mama, who is in the hospital, When the front left wheel bearing crapped out on my truck… Definitely not what I needed! I was in panic mode and stressed out big time, but Lexi was such a sweetheart, and managed to fit me in right away with Jason On a Monday morning and got me back on the road Within hours! I really appreciate you guys so much! Thank you again!

Need to add here, I am recently widowed and it's the first time I've never felt taken advantage in this situation. We will be booking intervals to get my vehicle totally repaired !!!! I am truly impressed ... loyal customer right here !!! Gisèle Gauthier

I have to thank Kaylee and the Ladies in the front office. They are always friendly, professional, caring and efficient. I’m always impressed with the service I receive.
Bernadette L Feb 2, 2024

Recently got new tires and brake work, and I'll absolutely be going back. The mechanics know what they're doing, and the service advisors are friendly, helpful, and accommodating. They even have comfortable waiting room with drinks and snacks. If you don't have time to wait, they'll arrange either a ride or a loaner car. Car problems suck, but these folks make it a lot easier.

I was in need of brake work and had a long road trip 5 days away. They squeezed me in and pre-ordered parts so everything could get done in one day. I appreciate the extra effort to get my job done in a rush!
