What Fixed Fifth-Wheel Hitch do You Recommend for My 2022 Chevy Silverado 3500 (8-Foot Bed)?
Question:
I am towing a 2020 grand design reflection on a 2022 chevy silverado 3500. I have an 8 foot bed with oem prep. Should I get a sliding hitch.

Expert Reply:
Generally, when purchasing a fifth-wheel hitch for your truck, we recommend a sliding hitch for short bed trucks. With that being said, you will have enough clearance space in your 8-foot bed to not worry about the necessity of a sliding mechanism for making sharp turns with your 2020 Grand Design Reflection on your 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 with OEM prep.
With that being said, I recommend a fixed fifth-wheel hitch like the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch for Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package # BWRVK3710. One of the benefits of the Companion is that it does not require an adapter for some other hitches. For this reason, it allows for full access to truck bed when hitch is removed. In addition, the hitch comes with 3 different height settings for your trailer-levelling needs.
