the guides at the inner edge may be damaged or need adjusting,could just be as simple as extending the unit and lubing it,is it a ram style or rack and pinoion,the rack may need lube

You're asking the wrong question since many travel trailer do have a 5th wheel hitch. I think you mean what is the advantage of a 5th wheel over a standard trailer hitch. It's a bit of a trade off. A 5th wheel will handle much better, but it does put more weight on the truck, about 17 to 20% of the total weight, where a standard hitch puts only the tongue weight, but doesn't handle as well. Added: It also has to do with size, get over about 22 feet, and the 5th wheel is all you can find.

Tree branch stuck up on top?
Or kids toys?
Climb up and look.
