Expert Reply:
For your 2022 Ford F-350 long bed with the factory puck system, for a 17,000 lb trailer you are absolutely fine going with the 20,000 lb Companion:
- B&W Companion OEM 5th-Wheel Hitch for Ford Super Duty Prep Package - 20,000 lbs # BWRVK3300
Realistically, this will be the best option for almost all of the F-350's, as - with exception - they max out with a 5th wheel towing capacity of just below or just above 20,000 lbs. If your F-350 is a diesel with dual rear wheels then the capacity jumps up to over 30,000 lbs.
So if you have that model truck and are thinking about upgrading to a larger 5th wheel trailer in the future, that would really be the only reason it would be worthwhile to go with the larger capacity B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch for Ford Super Duty Prep Package - 25,000 lbs # BWRVK3305.
