I keep reading that the newer 5ers have a redesigned nose with curved sides so that you don't need a slider hitch on a short bed truck. My Ram has the 6.5 bed so I was wondering if I need a slider with certain models or if the newer ones eliminate the need for the slider hitch.
Mine is no slider. Andersen hitch on a B&W Turnover Ball mounted to my frame. Ram Cummins short bed.


My Coachmen 5’er has “Turn Tec Engineering”, but the front bedroom still has a full king bed and a washer/dryer in the middle of the front wardrobe ;)
