with short truck beds..you need a hitch that will slide back automatically giving clearance to the truck window glass and the trailer's front.
Pros... PullRite Super glide does it automatically
Con....one Heavy mother....If i want to disconnect i have to remove top unit to take some of the weight off and then winch off the rest...(hitch is about 260 lbs).
some of you guys might be able to lift the remaining hitch part..... but Chemo destroyed my shoulder and those days are gone

So I pulled my hitch once before I knew I needed a better solution! 1000 lb cart from Harbor Freight went high enough to reach the tailgate. I needed the cart to unload a refrigerator, and after that ordeal, I made a hitch stand out of 1/8 steel with 2x4 skids. Now I can easily set down the stand with the hitch still on top to use my cart. When done I push the cart back under the stand. I still have to man handle the thing in the bed, but no heavy lifting up and down from the truck.
