I really don't see a need for auto leveling although it would be nice. When I have the trailer positioned I look at the large level mounted on the pinbox. It shows if or how much is needed to level.

When unhooked the front is raised or lowered by the electric front jacks while I watch a level in the side compartment. Another 2 min and level front to back.

Carry two boards in bed of truck sideways just in front of hitch.
Both are 2 x 10's. One is just long enough that both tires rest on it. The other is 4" longer.
Drop one or both down as needed and back up on them.......done.
Generator is in an enclosed box in front area of truck bed.
Cord from generator plugs into a front receptacle that I added.
Traveling in hot weather I fire up gen and run A/C unit. Rig nice an cool when we pull in to camping area....CG, boondock etc.
Level up system.......if it was an option I would have added it.
Too expensive after the fact....for me! I can lay a couple of boards down for a long time for that price. Actually GF puts them down I just position rig :B
