Sliding Hitch or not
There seems to be an assumption that getting a short bed TV automatically means you'll need a slider. I bought that argument on my first TV. I subsequently found that I almost never used the sliding...

One reason to have a slider. Preferably an automatic slider. Last week we traveled from South Central PA to western NY. About 20 miles from our destination we came upon a bridge signed for 12'6". Blind corner up the hill that we just came around and a blind corner down the hill under the low bridge. With the pullrite I was able to quickly back the trailer into a small gravel area beside the road and do a 180 and head back up the hill. With no slider it would have been much more difficult and taken longer. With a manual slider I would have been out in traffic trying to get the hitch slid back so I could maneuver. We don't always choose the messes we get into. But it is nice to have the proper equipment when you get into those messes.
And if people lack anything while in traffic, its patience.
