TT-Correct Hitch to use
Late last fall I purchased a new travel trailer (2014 Puma 32DBKS). Dry weight roughly 8,700 with 2,000 cargo...so gross weight of about 10,700. Total length from hitch to bumper is 36'. Tongue wei...

Well I'm convinced from the couple of responses I need a new hitch.
Didn't want to spend anymore $, but to be safe and comfortable, it needs to be done.
What are your thoughts on this hitch?
I would imagine a 12,000# or higher rated ball is needed as well.
What other brand would you recommend?
The Blue Ox looks simple and clean.
The current vehicle I have and a 2011 Chevy Crew (i know...1/2 ton pulling this camper).
I ordered a new pickup right before Mother's day, which is another 1/2 chevy, but it is the 6.2L. Where I work there is a scale and I do plan on weighing everything. The only thing, the camper is at a campground until mid July. Then only a couple of days later we go on another trip and will not have enough time to weigh and figure out which hitch i would need.
