Setting Up Tow Vehicle w/hitch, Etc
Looking at buying a 3500 Ram Mega Cab with short box and wondering if this may be problem towing a fifth wheel trailer. Is a special hitch required so the cab does not hit the trailer? Also about how ...

Btw I have the mega cab... I've never had to slide my hitch. If you buy the ram box you will need the sidewinder hitch that pivots at the pin box and not in the truck.
I have seen a couple of Mega cabs with dented cabs.
And I've seen a full size f350 dually with a dented cab and crushed fender.
To slide or not will really depend on the trailer design... How ever to my point, I've never had to slide my hitch and I get into some tight spaces. Only caveat here is that I can tell that if my trailer tires should any more than a foot higher then the tow vehicle on a tight cut, I may have to slide or straighten out a bit.
