Well, there is the little issue that the B&W was involved in a catastrophic rollover incident that left the truck heavily damaged and the trailer basically destroyed. With the Anderson hitch, there was no incident, no rollover, just a destroyed hitch. Kind of apples and oranges.

The truck involved did not roll over!!

The hitch failed during an evasive manuver that resulted in the trailer disconnecting due to the hitch failure and as it left the truck damaged the side of the bed of the truck and the trailer landed on its side.
