So light a child can remove it from the truck
Check out This Video From Andersen on their new Aluminum Ultimate Fifth Wheel hitch... No this isn't the 9 minute version with a lot of bad acting. Just the good stuff. Game Changer? I don't ...

A few comments...
1) Andersen doesn't recommend flipping the GN attach version around. This is only recommended for the universal rail version
2) The aluminum coupler can be turned around with either version
3) The Andersen does not move the attach point back 10-12". The hitch moves the ball back 5" from the GN attach. My GN attach is a good 4" in front of my axle.
4) Cummins give it a rest... Produce an instance of an Andersen failing and come back with some actual data to support your max rating claim.
My point is anyone can say something rates to a certain spec but I still ask you do you really believe these should rate at 25K? If so what does that say about the B&W or any of the other hitches rated at 25K?
I have nothing against the Andersen but to think towing a 25K RV with it is fine is ridiculous. I would have no problem towing a lighter 5er with one but no way my current 20K MS.
The bed of that truck will be crushed with any sizable RV attached with the fore and aft pressures applied to the bed.
My 5ver only weighs 19,100 lbs. I guess it is light enough in that there is Zero bed deformation.
