I have a Q20 and it's a great hitch. It will mount to standard rails. Hitching and unhitching is a little bit different than what you're used to though. You don't set the trailer low and lift it up with the truck as you're backing in, you almost need a sliver of daylight between the hitch and the pin (I hope that makes sense).
I agree with this. My Q20 has been great for around 25K miles now with just routine cleaning and lubrication. And yes, I also think it will fit standard rails. With regards to what stro1965 said, I agree with him about the hitching. Here is a quote from several months ago about the Q20. I am quoting myself here...
"The Curt Q20 is a different kind of hitch and is not hitched up like other hitches. Some people who have had other brands of hitches have trouble with this. I did too, until I realized the reason.
Most fifth wheel hitch plates “fall back” at an angle to provide a “ramp” for the trailer hitch plate to ride up on when hitching. This doesn’t work very well for the Curt hitch because of the way it is made. The Curt hitch has a solid steel shank that is affixed to the hitch plate that extends down into a thick, rigid, rubber mount. This mount provides damping and prevents most “chucking and bucking” prevalent in many hitches. When the hitch is not coupled, the "resting" or "static" position of the hitch plate is parallel to the ground instead of tilting back like most hitches. The plate does have a slight bevel at the trailing edge of the hitch plate. When you are hitching to the Curt hitch, I have found it is best to elevate the trailer pin so that the hitch plate is almost at the same height as the truck hitch plate – within ½”. Most other hitches are a little more forgiving on the height because they will elevate the trailer 1-3 inches with the “Ramp”"If the hitch looks like it's in good shape and has a good price.... go for it.
