Depends on your truck. Do you have a short bed or long bed? Puck system or no? Weight of new 5er? If a long-bed, my "best" would be the Trailersaver BD5. My 2nd and more cost effective would be B&W Companion 25K# which I love.

If you are not going to the B&W, I'd give a recommendation for the Curt A-series (not Q-series), such as the A25. We switched to one after a modification to our truck removed the ability to quickly remove the B&W using the puck system in our Ram truck. I now use a PullRite 4439 picture frame and a Curt A25, and the combination works really well.

I'm a B&W guy too. American made of the utmost quality workmanship. Love the up and down, front and back adjustability.

I'll have to agree with Bearii on the B&W Companion hitch. I have a Dodge Ram that I pull our solitude 310GK with. Very simple to use and comes apart if you want to take it out as it's not light. Would buy again if I had to replace it for some strange reason.

Someone once tried to tell me the Anderson style /brand would void my warranty. ( apparently not true) I liked the concept but being a novice I was scared of it's robustness. I went with a Reese M5 20K model for my 337RLS because my Changing Lanes heroes went with it & I liked the always ready to receive feature the way the pin was wrapped around vrs clamshell and even though I of course do pull tests, I like the Green indicator at capture.. Wasn't cheap but looks purdy too. Does not seem that popular though so I've noticed. I wonder if I'm the only fan boy

Another B&W vote here as well. It's heavy tho and if I were to do it again, I'd probably go with a goosebox over the andersen so there is nothing to remove other than the ball. I have a slide in camper as well so no rails was a must.

I love my Goosebox. I especially love having nothing but a turnover ball in the bed of my truck.
