Forgot to mention in my last post, that the emergency cable is something that you have to watch as well. In our last camper, shortly after we got the hitch, I wasn't paying attention enough attention where I routed the cable, and our cable got munched at one point when sliding back. Didn't pull out, luckily, but messed up the cable. After that, I shortened up the cable so that it never dangles down into the working mechanism of the hitch.
It was funny when we picked up our current camper. After putting the locking plate on, I took the emergency cable, and quickly shortened it with a couple of wire ties as a temporary fix. The guy from the service shop helping us hitch up was looking at me like I had no idea what I was doing. I knew exactly what I was doing.
While I have a SuperGlide, and love mine, it's probably safe to say that they are not for everyone...
