I can absolutely recommend a 5th wheel hitch for your 2022 GMC Sierra 3500 long bed, and for your truck with the factory puck system, my favorite option is the Curt A-Series. This hitch is available in different weight capacities so you can choose the one that best suits your needs:

- 20,000 lb Capacity: Curt A20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package # C84FR

- 25,000 lb Capacity: Curt A25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package # C24FR

- 30,000 lb Capacity: Curt A30 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package # C16070

I really like the A-Series of hitches because they will give you a really comfortable ride relative to other hitches, and because they are among the easiest 5th wheel hitches to use. The reason the A-Series allow for a relaxed towing experience and ride is because they use an interlocking dual jaw system that wraps totally around the king pin, making complete contact with it, ensuring a vice-like grip. That full contact means that the back-and-forth chucking, bucking and jarring that you get when towing with lesser hitches won't occur with the A-Series.

These hitches are also among the easiest to use because of their handy color-coded indicator system, which is visible from your truck and lets you know if the jaws on the hitch are ready to couple, uncouple or tow, They even have a fully articulating head for a smooth coupling process and built-in zerk fittings so you can lube the hitch with ease.
