Can I know the wait of this one and if it is compatible with a VW Atlas with towing package ? It looks very impressive and I’m really interesting in buying it.
Our GLYDER has a 2″ shank for a 2″ receiver. It’s ideal for a total towing weight of 4,000 – 7,000 LBS. If you have more detailed questions, feel free to give us a call at (574) 218-6363 or send us an email at sales@genyhitch.com. Thank you!
Function exactly as advertised. Helped isolate bounce and vibration from the trailer to the tow vehicle. Great hitch. It truly does take some mileage to “break-in” 500 -700 miles and it was full broken-in. Ordered with a 6″ drop, and one of the mount holes for the drop plate was stripped, ran a 1/2×20 tap in the hole and 1/2×20 die on the bolt and torqued it to the recommended specifications. No issues after towing 3500 miles on some questionable quality interstates.
I bought both a glyder and a shocker hitch. I bought the heavy duty shocker. It has made very interesting comparisons. First off one thing I really think is better about the glyder is you hook on and go not abunch of adjustment with air pressures if you are loaded or empty. With the glyder you hook up and go. The two hitches in fact each seem to be better depending on the size of the bumps in the road. Both are very good. The glyder was far cheaper which is another plus. I will not tow anything again with out one of these shock absorbing hitches. I have one more to buy for my third truck and I know it will be the glyder as it is a midsized truck. I wonder if the way to run these the best is a glyder hitch and a shocker on the trailer. Wondering if you could have the best of both worlds. In conclusion the glyder was cheaper and hassle free so if it fits within the weights you tow with your truck the choice is clear.
Bought this hitch setup for my farrier trailer. I haul my trailer 5 days a week 52 weeks a year. This hitch has been amazing. Surprising how much it dampens the jarring of my trailer. I highly recommend this hitch. I have already spread the word to other farriers in my area about it.
Thanks for sharing your amazing testimony, Dustin! Thank you for trusting GEN-Y for your towing needs!
Bought this hitch based on the review from the guys at TFL Truck. Back in late 2099/early 2020 I had dreams of hauling my motorcycle to destinations to go riding. Flash forward 3 years and one worldwide pandemic – I Finally got to use this on a 1000 round trip though the Smokey Mountains and let me tell you, never have I towed anything and been so comfortable! Traditional fixed-position hitches rattle, clatter and jerk. They’re noised and every little road bump is felt and amplified through the frame/body. With the Gen-Y Glider, my drive was quiet, my fixed axle trailer didn’t translate every little road nuisance into my molars, etc. It was like I wasn’t even hauling a trailer. IMHO worth every penny. 10/10 would buy again, and again, and again!
We’re so happy to hear our GLYDER has improved your ride on your trip, Alex! Thank you so much for sharing and for being apart of #teamGEN-Y!
