B&W fail or Operator Error?
Not my truck, trailer or hitch. Buddy of mine had this happen to him a couple of weeks ago. Said he did a pull test, all was good. When he pulled out of the campsite it disconnected. I do not have any...

OMG!...that was a high hitch if I was a betting man or the handle was not fully to the rear of the truck.
IF the B&W is hitched properly...confirmed from visual inspection and the handle is pinned....NOOOOO way would that happen...period...physically impossible!
Let the haters hate :)
Your statement if the B&W was hitched correctly is true....but also true for any 5th wheel hitch type or brand.
I haven't heard anyone bash or hate the B&W hitch unlike A couple of B&W owners on this website bash other brands constantly...you know the type that thinks their equipment is biggest/best .....and brag the B&W can't be high hitched or drop a trailer......and brag you don't have to pull test or do a visual with the B&W brand hitch.
What happened to the owner in the picture can happen with any 5th wheel OTR or rv type hitch brand when hitch jaws aren't around the pin and latched properly.
