Trailersavor vs Anderson Ultimate

You said it from the start. They are to very different htches.
If your goal/priority is a lightweight easy to remove hitch Andersen wins.
However all other factors go to Hensley.
Durable,beefy,smooth ride,positive latching, substantial weight capacity all, superior reputation,all favor Hensley

We have the Hensley TrailerSaver BD3. We traded in our Hensley Arrow on it.

The BD3 and BD5 are both air ride hitches and come apart for easy removal. BD3 is rail or underbed mounted, and BD5 is underbed or puck system.

BD3 is an 18k gross trailer weight and 3500lb pin weight.
BD5 is a 28k gross trailer weight and a 5k pin weight.

From your other thread.

Trailersavor

is that 14500 lb a dry weight or the trailers gvwr ??

you want to work from the trailers gvwr for hitch selections.

I pull GN and 5th wheel trailers and IMO a 5th wheel hitch is a bit easier to hook up although not a game changer for my use.

For a trailer that size and heavier I would choose a air ride hitch.

You may think that the Anderson is easy to hook up but wait until you back up too far and push your tailgate into your trailer.

Buyinh first 5th wheel. Weight is around 14,500 with a pin weight of 2,900. Trying to decide between the trailersavor and the Anderson Ultimate. I realize they are completely different style of hitches. I like the trailersavor with the airbags and how sturdy it is (plus I have the hensley arrow so I know the company. The Anderson looks appealing due to the ease of getting in and out, plus it seems to be easier to hook up. Does anyone have any thoughts or suggestions?

Lots of conversation on this site about this exact question...

You will now get possibly 100 different reasons why you should like 1 over the other..

Do yourself a favor and look under the search tab for hitches and read away..
Looking at the 2, with a DRY weight of 14,000, I would NOT chose an Anderson.. From MY understanding, they are great hitches, but better for lighter fifth wheels.. But then again, that is only MY assessment after reading all ( most ) of the posts....

I have NOT had either so I am of no help... BUT , ask me about my B&W Companion ! :B
