Best Fifth Wheel Hitch Recommendation for 2008 Ford F-250
Question:
We have a pull behind camper, a 34 ft. Sprinter KBS300. I have been debating on trading for a 5th wheel. My question is what do you consider the best 5th wheel hook up, one that seems to have the least problems and is also user friendly without having to spend a fortune. Thanks for any info

Expert Reply:
The B and W Companion hitches are considered by nearly everyone to the best all around fifth wheel hitches. Easy to use, very reliable, and quiet.
So for the hitch you'd need the part # BWRVK3500 for if you need a stationary hitch (if you have a long bed) and part # BWRVK3400 for if you have a short bed and need a slider hitch. For a rail kit you'd then want the part # BWGNRK1108 which is a confirmed fit for your 2008 Ford F-250.
