Demco Hijacker

So I've finally decided I need a slider for my SB Ram. I've looked at the Superglide but really interested in the Hijacker as it does not require a capture plate as it has an adjustable capture plate built into the hitch head. Does anyone have any experience with either hitch? I've look at manually sliders but jumping up into the bed with this tall truck seems like a pain and knowing me, I would forget to pull the lever anyway and take out my rear window! Thanks!

I have a friend that we just installed a Demco auto-slider, and it's a slick set up for sure. I have a Curt 20K slider and honestly my F-250 can't turn hard enough too have the cap hit the cab. I do slide it back when backing up, but it's not big deal you don't have too jump in the truck they have a nice handle that is easy to use and reach.

Took the plunge on the Demco! Just under $1100 free shipping, woot! Figure for the $300 extra it's worth not having to worry about pulling a lever every time to back up. With 3 young kids to worry about, just one less thing to forget about and possibly damage my new truck!

Just got it delivered Monday. What a beast of a hitch! Glad I got over 3,000 lbs. of payload, LOL! Can't wait to get it installed and try it out.
