Best High Capacity Curt 5th Wheel Hitch Recommendation 2018 Chevy Silverado 3500 with Hitch Prep
Question:
We just purchased a Sandpiper 379FLOK 5th wheel. GVWR is 15500 and Hitch Weight is 2096. Is there a reason to go with the Q25 over the Q24? Tow vehicle is a 2018 Silverado 3500 with the factory installed rails. Thanks

Expert Reply:
For your 2018 Chevy Silverado 3500 with the factory hitch prep package Curt does have quite a few hitches available and there are a few like the two you mentioned which are very similar in capacity so it's hard to know which is the "better" option.
The best option though is the A25 part # C16066 which is the newest head design that has been tweaked for the best performance and reliability.
