Question:
Hey guys. Have the new 2020 Sierra. 3500 long bed. It does have the factory prep kit for a 5th wheel. I am wondering what you think the best hitch is for this setup. Your advice is appreciated.

Congratulations on your new truck!
For your 2020 GMC Sierra 3500 with the factory prep kit the best hitch is the Curt A30 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16070 because it provides you with the highest capacity available, features a 2-jaw locking system for 360-degree contact with the king pin, and has a unique indicator system that lets you quickly see when it's ready to couple, uncouple, or tow.
The A30 features a robust 30,000 pound capacity, which surpasses the next highest-rated hitch for your truck by 5,000 pounds, letting you take full advantage of your full ton Sierra. The 2-jaw locking system I mentioned above not only provides an extremely secure connection to the trailer, but also works to create a really smooth ride without all the rattle and movement that you tend to get with a lot of other hitches. This particular model is designed to drop right into those factory pucks so you can maintain a clean bed with the hitch removed.
I have attached a short video review that you can check out as well.
