Abstract: A height adjustable, articulating tow hitch assembly for connecting a towing vehicle to a towable vehicle, comprising in one embodiment an upper housing, a lower housing connected to the upper housing, the lower housing further comprising a hollow port formed therethrough adapted to receive and securely retain an elongated, variable height tongue member, the hollow port further being adapted to allow the tongue member to articulate or laterally move over a predetermined angular range as predetermined. A stop mechanism (such as a bolt mechanism) is formed on the tongue member's near end, the stop mechanism adapted to prevent the tongue member from being removed from the lower housing's hollow port while allowing longitudinal extension and retraction of the tongue member within the lower housing, and further, allowing angular movement of the tongue member when the tongue is in an extended position away from the upper housing.
