New model requirement! Andersen manual or auto slide. I was parking my trailer at home the other day with my manual slider in the rear position when I notice that the trailer would have hit the cab if it was not slid back!

Obviously you're not properly equipped to be on the roads. Haven't your read the forum and learned that a 5er can't be towed with a SHORT BED TRUCK! If you do try something so foolish, not only will you destroy your truck but the ride will be so rough you're beat to death if you drive down the road. I'm really surprised the local Towing cops didn't lock you up in the looney driver bin ;)
Actually, the Andersen moves the pivot point (Ball) approximately 4 inches aft, and depending on how you set the ball adapter on the kingpin it can effectively add approximately 4 inches to the arm which will make the rig slightly more responsive. It will also result in your being able to turn a little bit sharper without hitting, but you'll still have limits.
