Which way should I go?
I recently upgraded my truck to a GMC 2500HD and purchased a Reflection 260RD. I had a B&W under bed gooseneck hitch installed but now I am struggling with which way to go with the connection to the pin box. I have narrowed it down to the B&W Companion Fifth Wheel Hitch or the Andersen Ultimate Gooseneck connection. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

I'm a dyed-in-the-wool B&W fanboi so my choice is pretty obvious. But I think with that weight of a trailer, you'd likely be okay with the Andersen.

I think that is going to be the determining factor for me as I use my truck a lot and the ease of taking the hitch point in and out of the truck are important to me as well as the durability of them, but they both have great reviews. Thanks for you input!

There is a warning in the owners manual of the B&W Companion hitch for the turn over ball mount about not using a wedge set-up. If you will be locking the pin box, this won't be an issue.
If you get the Anderson, I believe you will have to lock the pin box.
