I like the idea of Andersen. Hate to read a thread like this as I plan to have this hitch with my next RV. Andersen may need to start building pin boxes and skip the adapter.
Actually, I think a socket type pin box would be a great idea, the ball hitch is much simpler, with far less moving parts than standard 5er hitches. It really wouldn't be hard for andersen to build a hitch adapter that distributed the weight better. Ultimate setup would probably be to design a different baseplate for something like the mor-ryde hitch which I would think would be quite the setup. It's already rumored that they are working on something that would fit factory puck setups, which would be highly desirable as well. Seeing just how much bed flex I was getting when backing up soft gravel while sorting out my popping was kind of concerning. Over long periods of time that would probably lead to issues.
