I have a GMC 2500 HD extended cab and got our fifth wheel in 2006. I had a manual slider and the first year would use it all the time being conservative. After a while I found that I did not need it and did not use it. And then... I put the 5th wheel through the back window getting into a really tight site when I was frustrated turning around. It was a surprise for the kids in the back. One told me "I don't think it is safe back hear" and the other took the opportunity to check to see if the back window was made of candy!

I have also used it when the site is at the top of a steep hill. We have lots of small site challenges in the NE!

I would suggest having one.
