Abstract: The invention provides a slide assembly for coupling a trailer to a vehicle. The slide assembly comprises a platform slidably mounted on a pair of rails. At least one of the rails has a plurality of notches on the interior or exterior edge thereof. At least one jaw is pivotally mounted on the platform and configured to pivot between a locked position wherein the jaw engages the notches and a sliding position wherein the jaw is removed from the notches. An actuator is coupled to the jaw to move the jaw between the locked position and the sliding position.
