Thanks, Chris
The base is noticeably lighter than the previous Companion Hitch I used. I separate the base from the hitch head when installing and they are about 75lbs each. Not to bad for one person to lift.

I was expecting higher weight limits but the new GM version has the same weight limits as the Ford version. I guess the wider stance on the Ram allows for more confidence on weight.

I haven't seen anyone else post about a 5th Wheel Hitch for the new GM Factory Hitch Prep yet, so here is mine, the B&W RVK 3700. I already had a B&W Companion Hitch from my previous truck, so I only needed to purchase the base unit of the 3700 and use the head from the Companion. Rated at 20k 5th Wheel weight, 5k hitch weight rated.

And that Ram base weighs much more, and takes up much more bed space. Okay I guess if you need 25k versus *only* 20k.
