I have been in CGs where sites were perpendicular to road and road was narrow.
Jack knifing rig was only way to get into site.........but I have long bed with an extended pin box and can't hit back of cab unless I jack rig way past 90*
Short bed without slider......hitting back of cab is a possibility.
Just like whether to have a 'bed saver' or not........depends on IF you drop 5vr whether it pays for itself or not.
Slider, bed saver, king pin tripod, surge guard, etc. depends on whether one thinks they are needed or not.
I could only justify cost/risk/benefit with the surge guard.
