May I suggest for those discussing the detriment affects of the Anderson Hitch applying too much pressure on the truck bed that you do have the ability to order the Ultimate Hitch version that mounts on pre-existing 5th wheel rails.
Ultimate Rail Version
Which to my un-educated mind would be the same stress points all of us already have on our regular fifth wheel hitches..
:W
Just my opinion but I use the rail version and think it's a better setup than any of the turnover ball style hitches that sit on the bed (Andersen or B&W). Just seems like more solid to me, and you have the flexibility of using any other rail mounted hitch, including a regular gooseneck ball with one of the rail mounted conversion kits. So you're covered for cheap if you've got a gooseneck utility trailer or livestock trailer.
The only downside is the rails in the bed but that's a pretty easy thing to work around.
