Best Reese 5th Wheel Hitch for 2019 Chevy Silverado 2500 Long Bed With Factory Pucks
Question:
I'm looking for a really good Reese 5th wheel hitch. I had a Reese in the past and loved it but got a 2019 Silverado 2500 with the pucks and want something that fits right in there. Long bed truck. What's the best Reese hitch for the truck?

Expert Reply:
The best Reese 5th wheel hitch that fits directly in the puck system of your 2019 Chevy Silverado 2500 long bed is the Reese M5 # RP30890 because of its single-piece jaw that fully latches onto your king pin, ensuring there is complete contact between hitch and king pin.
The outstanding jaw system of this hitch will ensure that you don't experience the rattling and "slop" that can occur in 5th wheel hitches with lesser jaws. That means you can tow in relative peace and can do so without the aggressive chucking that happens in hitches where the jaws don't fully enclose around the king pin.
The Reese M5 also offers height settings between 14 inches and 20 inches which is more than most hitches and is important because it will enable you to tow your trailer level. The hitch head can also be offset by an inch so you can gain additional clearance from your Chevy's cab.
The Reese M5 # RP30890 has a 20,000 lb capacity though it is also available with a 27,000 lb capacity at part # RP30895.
The hitch also comes with a lifetime warranty which speaks to its quality and durability, so it can be the last 5th wheel hitch you'll ever need.
I have added links to video reviews for you to take a look at.
