Expert Reply:
B and W are widely considered to make the best designed fifth wheel hitches out there. They are made in the USA, very reliable, not known to wear out, easy to use, and the quietest option as well. I would go with the Patriot slider # BWRVK3270 over this one though.
I attached a review video for this hitch for you to check out as well.
