6 point hydraulic leveling - worth it?
How much value should one add for hydraulic leveling on a 5th wheel? I have all manual jacks on my TH TT and it's not that big a deal to do it. Is it a nice to have or don't buy without type feature...

my concern is the rams hanging down too low. They do put them right behind the wheels but I'd be concerned about snagging them on a bush or berm when going off the road. Any concerns there Dave? I know we camp at much of the same places.
Everything seems to hang pretty low on mine. I'm more surprised by the low LP lines than anything else.
I haven't had any trouble with mine so far though.
I've noticed that on some they sit closer to the rear tire and others they are further away. The ones closest to the tire appear to have more clearance. Haven't verified that but just looks that way.
To the OP - I've had 2 toyhaulers. Neither with auto level. Over the last 10 yrs 75% of our camping has been boondocking in the mountain. Trying to find a spot to get level can be a pain in the @ss! Some of the time when we pull into camp it's not always daylight. My parents purchased a new toyhauler this past year. It has the 6-point auto level. My next toyhauler will for sure have that option. His camp set up time is so much quicker than mine. And their old...in their late 60's / early 70's. Haha. Another cool feature is that it remembers the hitch height making hitching up even easier.
