Curt Q20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Dual Jaw - 20,000 lbs
I bought a new trailer recently that weighs 16k and I just didn't feel secure using my Reese pro series 16k to Haul with. So I started looking at various hitches. I've had 3 other fifth wheel hitches in the past. All of them have been 15 and 16k models. What I never liked was the latching system. I've even had a trailer come out of the hitch due to a poor latching hook up. There wasn't an good way to lock the hitch. Some of it was my fault and some was a poor design. When I saw the Curt Q20 had a latch on the handle and also was color coded I was hooked. This hitch satisfied my want list. It arrived 4 days after I ordered it and like other comments I've read it was full of heavy duty staples. It was double packaged. There had to be over 50 staples. It was defiantly packaged securely. After dimantaling the packing I finally got to the hitch. There were a few scratches on the hitch from all the staples but a bit of black touch up paint took care of that. After all the hitch is going to be used and get scrached by me anyways. Four bolts and it was together. It fit perfictly it my existing rails. By the way it's heavier than my other hitches. I wound be apprehensive to pull my new trailer. If your looking for a great hitch at a great price you can't go wrong.
Unlike other reviews...I will say that my packages all arrived in perfect condition. (Boxes were all intact). Assembling the Q20 is a breeze and by all appearances this hitch certainly seems to be more than adequate for my needs. I haven't had a chance to actually use it yet...but from what I can tell, I certainly don't expect any issues. I like the way the hitch latches and unlatches, and that you can add a lock to prevent someone from opening the jaws while you are parked somewhere. I think the only thing I'll add is a lock in place of one of the pins...just to make it difficult for someone to remove and steal the hitch.

Curt PowerRide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Dual Jaw - 30,000 lbs
I would give this hitch 5 stars but it was damaged when I got it. The handle was apparently dented when it was shipped so I had the choice of either sending sending back a 125 pound hitch or banging out a dent in the handle and getting the damn thing installed.

Curt Q25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Dual Jaw - 25,000 lbs
I have ran a cheap competitor hitch for several years. A manufacturing defect (welded pivot pin) caused the hitch to fail and resulted in 18000$ damage to my truck and trailer. I chose the Curt 25000# hitch after much research and found it to be very well made and clearly shows when it is properly coupled. It is quiet and operates with minimal klunking and chunking going down the road. Overall I am very pleased.
Mounted this hitch on my flatbed 3500 Ram and the hitch works flawlessly. Pull 44' tri-axle weighing in at 23,000# with ease. Very easy to use and understand, very easy to maintain.

Curt Q20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider for Ford Towing Prep Package - Dual Jaw - 20,000 lbs
Got here about four days early. Packaging was great. Haven’t used the hitch yet, but have used the Q24 for ten years. I really like Curt products and etrailer has the best prices I have found. Great service. Highly recommend.
I gave it 4 stars only because I haven't experienced the operational aspects of the 5th wheel hitch yet. That will happen in the coming months when we put the hitch to work. The packaging was a little beat up but all the pieces were in great shape and the nuts and bolts were there. The assembly went well, directions are easy to follow step by step. The only issue I had was with the 4 bolts that connect the plate assembly to the slider assembly. They were in an award place which made it somewhat difficult to start all 4 and tightening them without the correct tool. You really need a ratchet wrench to snug them up. I couldn't get to them with my 1/2" torque wrench to I used blue lock-tight a long with the supplied lock washers and hand tightened them the best I could which should be fine, I'll check them along with the other 8 on the slider assembly after a couple of trips to make sure all is good. There is some timely maintenance you need to pay attention to, that I haven't experienced on other hitches but it's no big deal. From a construction standpoint, it's well built, I like the cast pieces, not alot of welds to worry about or check on from time to time. The slider assembly is well thought out and works as it should with a fool proof locking mechanism. The double jaws should provide ample clamping power. The pivoting head also appears to be well thought out and should provide plenty of tilt for those award hookups you find yourself in from time to time. So far I'm please with the equipment and the price I paid for it. Not to mention FREE SHIPPING. Your definitely getting your money's worth in a sound, well built 5th wheel hitch assembly.

Curt PowerRide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package - Dual Jaw - 30,000 lbs
Because of the design of the pick up box, this hitch is the easiest hitch. I have ever used it simple to install and completely remove from the box.
We’ve been full time RVing for a year and absolutely love this hitch, and have had zero issues with it. We are towing a 19000 lb Riverstone with our GMC 3500HD dually, and I would definitely recommend it.

This Q25 is solid and heavy duty, I installed myself without any issues..I’m excited to pick up my new 5th wheel toy hauler in couple days…I’m happy with my purchase, I know it’s going to hold up for many camping trips to come.

Curt A30 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package - Dual Jaw - 30,000 lbs
Works as it should. Prior to installing this hitch I had never touched a 5th wheel hitch. This hitch is designed to work on GMC/Chevy with trailer prep package. Well they did a great job. I went from hitch in the crate to hitch installed in less than 30 minutes. I would caution that you may need help lifting hitch into bed of truck, hitch is heavy.
Definitely a substantial piece of equipment, easy to install although the instructions were somewhat lacking. Quality is excellent and the unit is nice looking. Confident it can handle any 5th wheel unit.
