The point I am making is the base just sits on the sheet metal of the bed and WILL deflect it when the fore and aft forces of a large 5er are applied. By direct connecting the base to the pucks it would be an improvement in design IMHO.
I agree. If the Andersen has a shortcoming, it's that it doesn't have a more direct tie to the truck frame. In this regard the rail mount version looks better than the gooseneck ball version. If they came up with a puck mounted version that would be better yet.
Yes
There are other issues for me like not being able to lock release handle. Of course I get the slamming comments for even saying that! Or there is no way the RV will jump off the ball comments. I guarantee it can! My heavy MS was airborne coming off an offramp that they had gouged the asphalt out for re paving, the inside of the RV was not pretty when we stopped. But again i'm bashing.
This is just my OPINION their advertisements are like a late night infomercial!
I do like they have US Made products, I just think they make them seem better than they are.
So anyone saying I am "BASHING" or "SLAMING" please provide a quote.
