    Ray,
    I have a 303 as well, although a little older but am thinking of upgrading to the Gen Y hitch. How did it pull to Grand Lake?

    Ben, it did wonderful. We have Since gone to Nashville (Montgomery State Park) and it was truly a nicer and made a noticeable difference.
    I would NOT hesitate to do it again. Any questions, pm me and will give you my number and we can talk.
    You would not be disappointed.
    Happy Camping

    What about rail height clearance as only the pin box is adjustable and the clearance between the truck and trailer. There design is about 3" shorter than the Reese goosbox. Goosbox also has more vertical adjustment too.

    Just wondering as I looked at the model for the GD units with the turning point hitch and found it wont work for my new truck.

    I have a comfortable amount of clearance....the only thing that I am a "little" uncomfortable about is that the Anderson hitch had a setback of 6" so, I am closer to the cab, but I am going to get the B&W offset.....just to ease my mind. Bed clearance is great. Ride is AWESOME.
    Good luck with decision

    I have one on order for my 2022 380FL. Originally ordered Reese Goose Box. But the trailer came with the Rhino wing set and the Reese will not fit. So call Gen-Y and they make one for the Rhino. After I ordered I found out they can make a 3” longer one for an extra $300. I’m going to run the B&W “4 offset ao I should be good (I hope) in my Ram short bed.

    The key in the offset ball is your goose neck mount uses. Ford uses a round shank so the offset ball wont work. Is the Ram shank Square?
    Just asking?
