Just purchased a 2005 Glendale Titanium 32E37TS (GVWR 12,831), and will take delivery on the TV next week, a 2006 GMC 2500HD Duramax 6.6 diesel standard bed. Two issues I could really use some help with.
1. Hitches....The TV is a standard (short) bed, which would suggest a slider is called for. However, with the design of the Titanium (cab-over) can I safely install a non-slider hitch? If a slider is called for, any recommendations? I read on the forum some pretty unfavorable entries regarding the PullRite SuperGlide....something to do with king pin compatability. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
2. Brake Controllers...From what I can find throughout the forum, the Tekonsha Prodigy seems to be very highly recommended, and I suspect this will most likely be my final choice in purchase. However, as I was reading through the documentation that came with the 5er, I found that the axles/hubs/brakes were supplied by "Dexter Axle". In reading their literature on brake controllers, they tout what they refer to as a "state-of-the-art inertial controller called the Predator Series DX2". Just wondering if anyone could comment on the Predator, or make any other recommendations.
Many Thanks,
Danny
