Help with hitch decision
I just ordered a new Grand Design Reflection 318RST 5th wheel (GVWR 13,995) and plan to buy a 2016 GMC 3500 Duramax truck next. The truck has a 6.5' bed. I've spent a week reading up on hitches on...

GM is really behind the competition on the 5th wheel prep package. Ram and Ford have had this for what, 2 years now ? Not that one can't get the underbed mount installed aftermarket, but when you are spending $50,000 + seems a little stupid to have to go out and spend another $1000 or so for what the competition is offering for $400 with a factory warranty to boot.
I completely agree. I would also think ford will have upgraded their puck mount system in the 2017 MY. B&W does not rate their Ford hitch very high. I am assuming the reason is the placement is so close fore and aft with their puck locations. The RAM puck hitch has a much larger footprint with 25K towing and 6,250 pin.
