Looking for any recommendations on 5th wheel hitches. B&W, Reese, Curt, Hijacker? For the standard 16K hitch, which one would be the best buy?
Also, I have a 2011 Silverado 2500HD crew cab with the 6.5 foot box. One hitch dealer recommended a slider hitch. Is that really needed for the 6.5 foot box? The new Heartlands describe an 88 degree turning radius and the dealer said you can get 90 degrees out of a slider hitch. Are the extra 2 degrees that important?
As background, I have no prior experience driving a 5er. Current camper (hopefully delivered soon) is a 2012 Greystone 29BL.
Thanks!
