I have the Superglide and it certainly is nice. It takes more maintenance then any other hitch I've owned, but it's probably worth it
On Older models, that means grease or graphite spray (Slip-Plate is recommended), later models need a shot of WD40.
The hitch head needs a shot of lube now and again, but that's true of any hitch.
No big deal.
Mine is ten years old and I love it.
Been in a few situations (mainly gas stations) where having the auto was a bonus (didn't have to stop and get out to slide manually).
Have also pulled a few "U" turns and not had to worry.
With a straight front fiver, the corner of my trailer would be into my truck at 60 degrees without it.
