X2 except mine is the slider. This will be my third season with it and I have had zero issues. The biggest gripe I have with it is the weight but I guess that's what you get with a slider rated for 20k lbs.

We have the Q20 with the Dodge Ram puck mount. Great hitch.

I have a Curt 16 for three years with no problem. It has a slider but I have not need it. There are probably better ones but more expensive. However, I am not sure they are worth the difference. I pull my FW from WI to TX and FL and all places in between every year with no difficulties. No problem with the hitch.

"If you are not exactly lined up the head tilts one way or another, or front to back, and won't latch. It gets 3/4 latched but that last bit is tough."

That is exactly what was happening to the inlaws Curt/RAM 25K when i was helping him hitch.

Reporting MY experience for newbies or people in the market for a new hitch is BASHING? I can tell you I get several PM's telling me they are happy with their B&W.

If YOU are happy with YOUR hitch that's great.

B&W and Anderson must be some mythical super hitch, because anytime someone asks an opinion on some make of hitch, there are always the posts that say buy this brand, everything else is junk, which doesn't help answer the question asked.

I'll instead answer the question the OP asked. Curt fits industry standard rails. They are a great hitch. They are NOT a pita to hitch like B&W promoters suggest, you just have to be smart enough to do it the right way, and it's easy. Hitch and unhitch first try every time.

I used to feel the same way about my RBW until I saw the light!

Q5 20k Older model I guess

I guess I'm just not smart enough. I've tried exact same height, 1/4" higher, 1/2" higher, 1/4" lower, and about every other combination. If you are not exactly lined up the head tilts one way or another, or front to back, and won't latch. It gets 3/4 latched but that last bit is tough. Some day's I'm lucky, some days not. It just don't close that last bit unless everything is exactly right. It could be something is wrong with the hitch as I bought it used but looked like it maybe had one usage, light scrapes on head is all. If anyone has any solutions I'm all ears otherwise I'm buying something else. 45 min of back & forth is BS. This replaced a Husky 16k slider which I never had a problem with except it's weight. I never used the slider.

I guess it would be too hard to call Reese to see if the Curt would fit or if the rails are even heavy enough to tow with the Curt. Good Grief!!

It's people like you that ruin what is normally a very useful and friendly website. Happy huh? That's debatable at best!
You do realize he also asked for opinions on the hitch don't you? Good grief x 10!

Op... Yes, the Curt will fit standard rails. And the Curt is a highly regarded hitch. Only complaints I have heard about them is they can be finicky to unhitch and are heavy!

They must be slipping, I made it to the second page before reading how wonderful the B&W hitch is and everyone else buys junk.

I have Q16 slider I've been meaning to sell. It works fine but clunks some stopping and taking off. Going down the highway is fine, and it's not difficult at all to hitch or unhitch. For the money Curt if fine, but there are better hitches on the market for sure.

Fully agree!
