Best Fifth Wheel Hitch Recommendation for 2018 Ram 2500 with Factory Rail Kit
Question:
For my 2018 Ram 2500 with the factory rail kit in the bed which is the best hitch option for a fifth wheel?

Expert Reply:
The best fifth wheel hitches we offer for your 2018 Ram 2500 with the factory rail kit is the B and W Companion hitches. If you have a long bed you'd want the fixed Companion # BWRVK3600 or if you have a short bed truck you'd want the slider version part # BWRVK3670. A slider hitch is needed for a short bed truck so that you have enough clearance to make tight turns.
What makes the Companion hitches so nice is that they are USA-made, very reliable, and easy to use. Most RVers on the road swear by these hitches as the best option.
