With a tow vehicle you are going to get a shift in the CG by hitching up as long as the hitch is far closer to the rear axle than the front. Being a few inches forward of the rear axle isn't going to change the shift all that much since the load is still several feet behind the center of the vehicle. In the case of an MS and other heavy rigs, it's a significant load.
