Anderson Ultimate and 100" wide 5th Wheel
Anyone here using and Anderson Ultimate to tow a full size (not a light) openrange (mine is a 2014 367BH) 5th wheel with a 2014-2017 Ram 2500-3500 short bed 4X4 and factory gooseneck/5th wheel prep. ...

Lots of guys in my area tow wide toy haulers with no issues with the AU setup, both rail mount and gooseneck style. My fifth wheel isn't quite that wide but I don't think a couple extra inches on each side would make much difference compared to a more sculpted but wider cab style on the trailer.
FWIW I love the hitch. Smooth, simple and rock solid. Mine is a rail mount style. I have no idea why there are so many Andersen bashers (almost none of whom have first hand experience). I suppose it has a lot to do with insecurity about something new that may work better in many ways than the status quo they're invested in. I'm aware of one report of a bent aluminum style hitch and another report of an Andersen hitch involved in a pinbox failure - obviously due to the Andersen adapter, since this is the first pinbox in recorded history to have ever failed.
