Question:

Please recommend a fifth wheel hitch for a 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 with the factory rail kit and an 8-foot bed? I'm looking for the best hitch available.

I strongly recommend the B&W Companion # BWRVK3700 for your 2016 Chevy Silverado 2500. The Companion is considered by many to be the highest-quality fifth wheel hitch available. With well over 350 reviews from customers who have used it, the Companion has gotten a nearly unanimous 5-star rating.

It features dual jaws which are a full 1" thick to provide complete contact with your king pin so you can have faith that your connection is completely secure. The Companion is also going to give you a much quieter ride with less rattling than other fifth wheels due to that secure connection, along with the polyurethane bushings it has. It has a pivoting head to make hooking up easier, a cam-action latch to deter binding, and offers three different height settings to ensure you are level with your fifth wheel. The B&W will fit directly into the puck system in the bed of your '16 Silverado, and has a towing capacity of 20,000 lbs.

I've added a link to a video review of this hitch for you to take a look at.
