Fifth Wheel Hitch Recommendation for 2021 Chevy Silverado 3500 with OEM Rail Kit
Question:
Looking at the Reese M5 20k for a 2021 Chevy 3500hd with fifth wheel prep package. There is a caution that says not certified to fit?

In 2020 Chevy/GM decided they wanted to change the rail design of the OEM rail kits in their trucks. So the M5 hitch that fit the 2019 model does not carry over to the newer trucks like what you have. So the Reese M5 you mentioned only fits up to the 2019 model.
We have the B and W Companion part # BWRVK3710 which does fit the 2021 OEM rail kit and is a really great option that is one of the nicer hitch out there like the M5. Many refer to the Companion hitches as the nicest hitch out there so it would work really well for you. What people love about this hitch is how well it holds up over time and how easy it is to use. It's also made in USA.
