Hopefully you got the factory GN/FW hitch prep. Either way, I'll also throw my vote for the B&W Companion. Heavy-duty hitch and a great company that stands behind it.

If your new truck has the 5th wheel prep, it is had to go wrong with the B&W RVK3600.

dapperdan has it right, the one in picture is the one you need. It is not only well built, but is very user friendly. It will hookup/disconnect easily at any angle, but has solid, no rattle connection.

I have used the Ram OE 25K hitch for 5 years now, no isssues

We have a MORryde pin box on our Suites and I bought a B & W when we bought the '15 RAM. Best hitch I've ever owned! I've owned Reese and Draw Tite previously but the B & W is built to higher standards IMHO. I LOVE it. :B

Moryede pin box with Husky 26K Hitch. The KZ should have the pin box and heres the hitch: http://www.huskytow.com/product/16k-w-26k-w/

I pull a KZ with that hitch and the combination works great, no chucking, easy hitch/unhitch, closed indictor. The down side is it is heavy.

B&W, Reese, Curt, Pullrite, and other name brands all make very good hitches and all have their fans. Air ride hitches are great but considerably more expensive. But what is a few more dollars when you have already spent 10’s of thousands for an RV. Air ride pin boxes can also soften the ride on a standard hitch.

Air ride hitch, dual pivot head. All else is hype. My original hyjacker hitch is still going strong after 13 years.
