Question:
I'm looking at the pullrite superglide or the demco hijacker for my 2019 ram 3500. I know you don't carry the pullrite but which of these hitches would you go with if it was your truck?

Easily the better option between the Demco Hijacker and Pullrite SuperGlide for your 2019 Ram 3500 is the Hijacker, which is what I would go with and highly recommend you do as well.
The reasons are pretty straightforward, and starts with the elite jaw system of the Hijacker. It is a single-piece jaw that wraps totally around the king pin, and the connection is enhanced by a 3/4" solid steel bar that locks into place once the jaw is closed. This reinforced jaw system is what will give you a much quieter ride with less rattling and slack in the jaws than other hitches.
Additionally, the SuperGlide is at a set height, while the Hijacker has adjustable heights which means you will have options in order to ensure you will be able to tow your 5th wheel trailer level - options you don't have with the SuperGlide.
You didn't mention if your 2019 Ram 3500 had the OEM Fifth Wheel Prep Package or not, so here is what you need for your Ram depending on if you have that. I have also added links to some video reviews for you to check out.
