Expert Reply:
The best fifth wheel hitch option we have for a 2020 Ram 1500 is the B&W Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider part # BWRVK3400-5W with the Custom Underbed Installation Kit for B&W Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches part # BWGNRK1319-5W. The reason that this is the best option is because it gives you full unimpeded truck bed access with the hitch removed.
The B&W Companion is also the best hitch on the market because it has a secure dual locking jaw system which works to reduce chucking/jarring and the cam-action handle makes uncoupling on unlevel ground easy. I also recommend adding the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness part # C56070.
