You have to realize that towing with an extension is a unique application mostly limited to truck campers although a few people loading UTV's in their truck beds also use a SuperTruss extension. Torklift designed theirs well and there is not a large volume of demand for these beefy receivers, so competition will be tough for someone to step in with a better or less expensive equal product. The Magnum line of SuperHitches is getting noticed in the construction and farming trades due to their 20K-30K lb capacities, but there are few a competitors with those ratings as long as you don't plan on using extensions with 10K+ lbs.
If you are handy with metal, you can make your own extension for less. Once you have to pay someone for the labor, you are better off purchasing a product that has some engineering and proven history behind. I mention this because I have now bought two of these receivers and did research alternatives before spending my money.
