No we are talking about the Reese picture frame adapter. The dealer tried to order the Reese hitch which was not available for our 2014 Ram. We called Reese directly to verify this and were told in September 2013 that no Reese picture frame would be available til mid 2014. The Dealer ordered the 25K Chrysler Curt Hitch which arrived with the Reese picture frame adapter-which has the Chrysler part number. This all had to be done because there was no 25K Reese hitch available for our 2014 and we sold our truck with our old 17 year Reese hitch. Hugs, Di

Dutch & Di,
Believe we may be talking about two different things. I have the 5er/GN prep package in my truck...I needed a picture frame adapter to mount my Reese 20K Signature hitch...MOPAR was very slow in getting the picture frame adapter to the market, and at that time, were the only manufacturers of the picture frame adapter, (we're talking from the time the 13's came out, until late 13'...now Reese also makes the "picture frame adapter"...THAT is what I was talking about. I got a picture frame adapter and then attached my Reese 20K Signature hitch to the picture frame adapter, which attached into the cam locks in the bed of y truck. I already had a 5er hitch I wanted to use. I believe you may be talking about a hitch that COMES with the leg's of the hitch configured to mount into the 5er/GN prep package that can be ordered on the truck, bypassing the purchase of a picture frame adapter. If that's the case, you are right, Reese is still working on that one, but if not mistaken, either B&W or Curt one, (can't remember which), DO have a 5er hitch that comes with the legs that will lock into the prep package like the picture frame adapter would.
