Comparing The Curt Q24 And Reese M5 5th Wheel Hitches For a 2019 Ford F-350

Question:

I just got a 2016 F-350 and have been looking at the Q24 and M5 but can't decide. What do you recommend?

The Curt Q24 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # C16545-16017 and Reese M5 Series 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # RP30922 are both excellent options for a 2019 Ford F-350. I recommend the Reese M5 Series 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch because it has a greater height adjustment which is needed to accommodate tall bed sides on new trucks, a wrap-around jaw design that has a better grip therefore does more to reduce chucking/jarring, and it physically lighter therefore easier to get in and out of the truck bed.

Furthermore, the puck system in your truck bed is made by Reese and was designed for the Reese M5 Series 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch so the fit would likely be better as well. I have attached a photo with a better explanation of the wraparound jaw design for you as well.
