Question:

Hello. I am in the market for a 5th wheel hitch. I have a brand new 2019 Ford F-250 with a short bed and the puck system. Can you recommend a good hitch? Thank you!

For your 2019 Ford F-250 with the short bed and factory puck system I highly recommend the B&W OEM Companion with Slider # BWRVK3370. The Companion line of hitches are considered by many to be the best hitches on the market and a big reason for this is its 1 inch thick dual jaw that provides a 360-degree jaw-to-king-pin contact. What this does on top of ensuring a safe and secure connection with the trailer is allow for a really smooth ride with less rattle and annoying towing noise. It also features polyurethane bushings for a quiet ride and a fully articulating head that eases hookup. Its robust gray powder coated steel construction will resist rust and hold up well over time. This particular model is designed to drop right into the factory pucks on your F-250 without the need for any additional components. It's also made right here in the USA!

The hitch has a 20,000 pound weight capacity. The built-in slider will provide you with 12 inches of front to back travel for the needed cab clearance on your short bed truck.

I have attached a short video demonstration that you can also check out.
