About Step n Tow
Step n Tow is a small manufacturing and marketing company located in northeastern Connecticut referred to as the "Quiet Corner". The Step n Tow was developed like most "niche" products, out of necessity. It was the idea of John Lipski that eventually evolved into the Step n Tow. In 2005, after years of fumbling with the ball mount and step idea, the Step n Tow began to take shape and now is a reality, see it at StepnTow.com.
