Expert Reply:

The Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider # DM8550022 and the Pullrite 2700 are very similar hitches. Both hitches will automatically slide back, up to 14", as you turn to give you the capability to make 90 degree turns with your 2015 GMC Sierra 2500 6.5' bed. They both feature similar designs and require capture plates to lock the king pin in place in the hitch.

As for the differences, the Demco has an adjustable height of 15-1/2 - 18-1/4" tall while the Pullrite requires you to purchase different feet to adjust the height. The Demco has a 4,500lb vertical load limit and 18K GTW capacity while the Pullrite only has a 4,000lb vertical load limit and 16K GTW capacity.
