Thanks for the replies!
We don't have the truck or the hitch, yet. Just trying to figure out how it could work. I didn't know the Andersen Ultimate would work with a gooseneck hitch (like I said, I'm still trying to grasp all the concepts involved with a FW.) I have read good things about Andersen, but also B&W.
All the trucks I had been looking at (Ford and GM) had the fifth wheel puck system, which is why I was thinking only about B&W. Then I found this one, which meets all our criteria at a good price, but had the gooseneck instead, so I was stuck not knowing how a FW hitch would work without major modifications.
I'm going to do some more research on the Andersen, to get a better grasp of its features and usage.
Thanks again for the help!

Any decent machine shop could build you an adapter that would fit the round Curt-style base and that the B&W Companion would bolt down to. Frankly, it's always surprised me a bit that B&W doesn't make an adapter for this.
