Another vote for the Andersen Ultimate 5th Wheel hitch.
I have one, even though I have a B&W turnover ball in my pickup, for a few reasons.
1. My parents have the same ball in their vehicle as the OP, so I can use theirs if I ever had issues with my pickup.
2. Andersen is rated at 24k, B&W at 16k...
3. Andersen is much lighter to remove/install
As for the poster that mentioned getting a quality hitch with 4 way tilt, the Andersen does one better.. INFINATE way tilt because of the ball.
Worried about breaking down and having someone else tow your 5th wheel? EASY!
You can put your Andersen hitch in any TV with a gn ball, OR you can remove the adapter (remove 2 bolts, loosen 4 allen screws) and it can be towed by a "standard" 5th wheel hitch.
Can't get much more universal than that.
