Best 5th Wheel Hitch for 2007 Dodge Ram 2500 with 6-1/2' Bed
Question:
Im trying to decide on a hitch for my 2018 Ram 2500 short bed. Is the BandW Patriot worth the extra cost?

Expert Reply:
For your 2007 Dodge Ram 2500 with 6-1/2' Bed I highly recommend the B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider, # BWRVK3270 installed using the B&W Universal Base Rails, # BWRVR3200.
The 3/4" thick jaw on the Patriot is precision machined to provide a tight, sturdy connection. This Made in the USA hitch option creates a secure connection between your tow vehicle and RV providing for a really smooth ride during travel, minimal chucking and clunking. Its cam-action handle is another feature that sets it apart from most others, as it's specifically designed to prevent binding and can easily be released, even when you're parked on unlevel ground.
The Patriot's heavy-duty powder coated steel construction is built to last (it sports a limited lifetime warranty) and it is not only made right here in the USA but made from raw materials sourced here as well.
