60,000 miles on the truck and 10,000 on 5er, all with original brakes too!

So instead of a slide hitch you use this gooseneck extender which is both an air-ride system and the "sidewinder" pivot system allowing it to work with your short-bed?

That's sweet!

You can get either, manual or auto sliding. Obviously the auto is much more expensive but easier to use.

All I did was bring mine home to un-winterize it, clean it from the roof down and start taking off all of the graphics as they were curling looking really bad. Next will getting new ones and putting them on.
