Best Fifth Wheel Hitch Recommendation for 2020 GMC Sierra 2500HD Towing Grand Design 311BHS
Question:
I just purchased a 2020 GMC Sierra 2500HD crew cab, standard box with the OEM puck and gooseneck system. Im trying to figure out what my best hitch options are? Im towing a Grand Design 311BHS. With this set up do I need a slider hitch? Im also considering the Anderson hitch.

Expert Reply:
I checked out your Grand Design 311BHS and since it has an extended pin box and a tapered nose you could get away with using a fixed hitch in the bed of your 2020 GMC Sierra 2500 and have the needed turning clearance. So the best option is the B and W Companion Hitch for GM Rail Kits # BWRVK3715 which fits the rail kit directly and gives you what nearly all RVers agree is the best fifth wheel hitch all around. It's well-made right here in the USA which means it's easier to use and will last a long time, it holds the trailer king pin very tightly which will give you a smoother ride quality, and breaks down into smaller sections much easier as well so installing and removing isn't as straining.
