Question:
I'm ordering a 2020 Ford F-250 Super Duty and a want to get an automatic sliding fifth wheel hitch for it because I'm getting the short bed version. What's the best one?

Expert Reply:
The best autosliding 5th wheel hitch on the market is the Demco Hijacker which comes in a variety of options depending on what your 2020 Ford F-250 Super Duty is equipped with.
If your Super Duty has the OEM Prep Package then we have the 18K # DM8550024 and the 21K # DM8550038 options which secure directly to the pucks in your bed.
For a Super Duty that doesn't have the OEM Prep Package you can either use the 18K # DM8550034 or the 21K # DM8550035 with the above-bed rails # DM8552031-71 OR for a clear bed when not towing you can use the 18K # DM8550022 or 21K # DM8550037 with the Demco Under-Bed Rail Kit # DM8551009.
The Hijacker is the only autosliding 5th wheel hitch currently on the market with different height settings plus a jaw system that gives you about 2" of solid steel that keeps your king pin secured and free from play. The double-pivot head also helps to give you a great towing experience so that you can reach your destination in comfort.
