GD Momentum 395ms with Ram Megacab

[ndanecker]

I believe we have the RV narrowed down and its the Grand Design Momentum 395ms. Also have a new tow rig on order (1/8/2021) and its a 21 Ram 3500 Megacab DRW. I know its a short bed and will need some care in turns unless you go with a slider or other device to limit (or really increase) cab to trailer distance.

So - one option I would lean towards is the Reese Goosebox. I have the GN prep included because I want the holes clean and like the puck system. Was thinking about swapping out the GN hitch for a B&W one that has the square hole so I can use the 4" offset ball. Million dollar question is do you feel this will get me close to 90* or at least to a point where I don't need to pucker-up every time I make a wide turn or try backing into a spot.

Really don't want to do a slider.

Suggestions and comments welcomed. Thanks guys.

Towed with a Mega for over 10 yrs but had a Pullrite Superglide hitch. I know you said you didn't want a slider. I liked the piece of mind and never even thought about hitting my cab with the trailer.

Whatever hitch setup you decide on, if you can be close to 40"s from back of cab, to hitch pin center, it should work. Length of pinbox, amount of curve to front of trailer, width of trailer front, all things to consider.

One thing to keep in mind...no sense to turn/back to 90 degrees. The closer you get to 90, the more you are twisting/pushing sideways, but not backing. It is always best to pull ahead a little, straighten, then back again at a lesser angle.
