I have looked at a fair number of youtube vids about the awesomeness of both sliding hitches and sidewinder/revolution pin-box approach to avoiding collision between trailer and rear of cab.
I can't seem to decide yet which is "better". Any of you have tried both and can compare/contrast the two approaches?
I had a slider. I did not care for it. I now have the Sidewinder and it works great. At 90 degree under 5ver, I have 9 inches clearance to the cab.
