Class V Hitch?
I have a brand new F350 with a class V hitch. It's 2.5" square. I'm getting a sleeve to insert so I can use my existing weight distribution hitch, 2". Thoughts on "needing" the torsion bars for weight...

Technically you will not need them; however, you will prefer to use them.
Sway aside, as that's another topic, the weight distribution bars will improve the handling of your TV and reduce porpoising while driving on uneven roads.
I don't need the WDH to tow my TT, and often don't use it around town, but it's a noticeable difference.
I also recommend either getting a 2.5" shank or welding the sleeve to the existing shank. It will reduce slop, wear, and noise.
