If I had a manual, and my driveway situation, I would have to get out of the truck every time to move it, and that would get old quick.
Auto sliders are really really cheap insurance if you have a shortbox...

I went thru the manual slider before the Andersen , and only had to use it to back into my driveway, although it clears without having to move it back, it seemed to maneuver a bit better slid back. With the andersen there is no issue backing in. But will repeat it makes no difference, and Auto slider or not you can hit your cab. There is no insurance except paying attention.
I have made many a hard turns, backing, etc, and I have always used a spotter ,had my wife or whomever, or payed close attention to what I was doing. Its worked well now for 14 years towing a fifth wheel, and will continue that way
