anyone have one of these 5th wheel boxes

I found this ( www.fifthairborne.com )on the internet and they look like they have some good ideas. I am contemplating buy one. I have hated the chucking between the truck and trailer since I bought the 5er. This is the most affordable fix I have seen so far. Do any of you have one that can comment on how you like it. I am not affiliated with them in any way, I am looking for input before buying that is all.

I have a simular one made by Trail-Air. It works well. Took about 70% of the bucking out. Cost was around $900 to my door.

Thats funny. The Demco ride glide is made abought 3 blocks from my house and I never knew they made it. I know several people that work there and have never heard of it. I have seen one of there simaler units for goosnecks but it was an older unit and I figured they only made them for a while. There main buisnes is building gravity wagons and pull behind feild sprayers. They also build Uhauls car trailrs and Penskee's car trailers.
