Demco Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider - Single Jaw - Above Bed - 13,000 lbs
Everyone that I spoke to on the phone were very helpful. I haven't hooked up my hitch yet but I like what I see so far.
From a ride perspective, this is an excellent hitch for a shortbox. I never worry about hitting my cab and have been all over the country with my 5er. Maintenance is relatively simple and makes traveling easy. Some cons are, of course, the weight and size of this beast. But, it works for me and I like the comfort of knowing I don't ever have to hop out in traffic to slide the hitch to make a turn. Another potential con is the height. In my 16 Nissan Titan XD Pro4x Cummins, I have to have this on the lowest rail setting and it still is quite tall. I know that's mostly my truck's height issue, even stock, but still a drawback for this to me. Also, I had one of the alan bolts come undone in the handle that controls the kingpin claw (so now I keep a closer eye on all the bolts)...but Demco sent me a new one no questions. Even so, all concerns are minor in the grand scheme of things.

Curt E16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ R16 Roller - Slide Bar Jaw - 16,000 lbs
Great price and works really well with the camper im pulling with no issues what so ever even sits low enough to have my bed cover on without removing any parts of the hitch
The fifth wheel hitch looks and works great. The assembly and installing in the truck bed was straight forward and we had no problems. I would recommend buying from etrailer they were lots of help.

Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ R16 Slider - Dual Jaw - 16,000 lbs
It only took me 75 minutes from unpacking the boxes, to having this unit pulling my 23 foot Forest River 5th wheel with my Nissan Titan XD. The Etrailer folks were very helpful and bent over backwards to meet my deadline. I'm proud to highly recommend them. B.J.
Hitch was simple to install. Very sturdy. Worked in Titan with 6.5' box with reese revolution pinbox on trailer.

Curt E16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Nissan Titan XD Towing Prep Package - Slide Bar Jaw - 16K
Nissan TitanNice hitch, clips into Nissan titan xd beds quickly. Very heavy.
Product arrived as promised. The Curt C16515 was an easy assembly and easier install. I had to remove some bed liner to allow the base plate to allow the base plate to fully engage the OEM gooseneck fittings. I think this is a great product and will fit my needs to haul my 5th wheel.

B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider - Dual Jaw - 18,000 lbs
From the start,the folks at etrailer were very courteous and helpful. I called many times during the decision making process and everyone was always right there to help. When I finally decided to purchase the B&W 18K Patriot w/slider Bailey was there to help with the order. She explained the free freight shipping and it was a done deal. It arrived 1 day earlier than stated, as soon as I opened the cartons it was in fact the good ol' American made quality I was accustomed to growing up. I proceeded to install on the B&W rails I purchased and installed locally on my 2022 F250 Lariat/ Tremor.I had a small hick- up with the install and etrailer gave me B&W's # as they like to handle issues themselves. Stephanie at B&W was just as courteous. Overall a very pleasant experience. The Patriot was basically plug and play. I then connected my 2021 Grand Design 303RLS Reflection and rolled down yhe road. What a smooth and quiet ride, loved it! I would definitely recommend etrailer and their products. Thank you all that helped.
So far so good. Hitch appears to be good quality. It was easy to install after installing the mounting kit. I haven't used it yet so I can't comment on how it handles when pulling a camper.

Reese Low-Profile 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Dual Jaw - 30,000 lbs
heavy and strong! But terrible design. Forward and back pivots smooth but side to side the fifth wheel moves on a half moon under two pins... first time out I thought I was loosing the trailer. Every corner expect a slam and your truck to shift. Its embarrassing to ride around with a truck that sounds like it’s going to fall apart. Would not recommend.
So overall this is a good hitch but would recommend an upgrade. I own a 2005 Freightliner Sportchassis. I pull a 14k fifth wheel. The hitch is an overall good design. The Sportchassis has predrilled holes already in place to fit this hitch. No drilling necessary. The only problem that I have with it is the side to side motion of the hitch head is very abrupt. The fore and aft movement is very smooth. The hitching and releasing is good. The hitch is built solidly. The head assembly rides on 4 metal roller assemblies and is supposed to roll left and right. With weight pulling on the head it rubs against the metal on the frame and provides excessive friction for the head. Once the trailer pivots enough, the head slams against the roller pins and sounds like the trailer is gonna break free. A very disturbing sound. My previous hitch was a b&w in a f250 and it was smooth as silk. The hitch does provide all that I need from it. With comparison to the other MDT hitches on the market it is the cheapest. I will probably with time upgrade to another hitch but it does provide what I need it for. If you are trying to save money on a MDT hitch, it works. If money is not an issue I would probably look at alternatives.

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 A20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Dual Jaw - 20,000 lbs
This product review is for a Curt A20 fifth wheel hitch for a 2017 Nissan Titan XD with the puck system. The hitch was ordered in late March and received May 10, the status of my order was followed up by Helen M. at etrailer, she was very informative and responsive to my inquiries. The hitch arrived by UPS in two packages. The packaging was in great shape and very substantial. All parts were secure in the package. Be advised this hitch is very heavy so help with installation may be necessary. The hitch base frame is cast iron and very sturdy. The base fit perfectly in the factory puck system. Grease was applied to the pucks and receivers to reduce future corrosion. Unpacking will take about 30 minutes and the installation is very easy and with help will require about one hour. The hitch is installed but at present has not been used and tested under a load, so be advised there will be a follow up to this review in the future. Thanks etrailer for a great shopping experience.
I have towed with the Curt A20 for a few thousand miles. I really like this hitch. The visual hooked versus unkooked indicator is awesome. It operates flawlessly. I do get some chucking over bridge expansion joints. However, it seems like most people have this problem. On normal roads it pulls great.

Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Dual Jaw - 16,000 lbs
This product gets a three based on shipping condition only. etrailer customer service and shipping time was excellent as usual. The shipment arrived 2 days after the order was placed, as promised. However, as others have noted, the product packing is poor. The boxes arrived with significant damage resulting in cosmetic damage to several parts. I haven't put the hitch to use yet but I am assuming it will work correctly. I will leave a followup after I use it.
The hitch arrived nicely packed in two boxes. Very easy to assemble and install on my existing bed rails. I took the RV out for a first run with the hitch, and it performed as advertised. It was a no fuss transaction and the hitch arrived on-time!

Andersen Ultimate Connection 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch System with Adapter - 20,000 lbs
I had reservations about using the Andersen Ultimate fifth wheel hitch, most of the reviews (that I researched) were negative but I decided to try the product for myself. I have a 2016 Titan XD SV (gas) model with a 6.5 truck bed and a 2017 Springdale fifth wheel (253FWRE). I can say without a doubt that the Andersen Ultimate fifth wheel hitch works! I have backed up and jack knifed between 70 and 75 degree angle and had about a foot and a half clearance from my truck cab and fifth wheel. Super easy to install, I did the work myself, the key is to purchase a torque wrench with correct socket and hex key socket. What I believe help make this hitch a success is the offset from hitchball on the Andersen unit (3") and the offset from the gooseneck adapter I believe it is also (3"). Additionally my fifth wheel has a sculpted nose, all of the negative reviews that some say about the Andersen fifth wheel hitch, they fail to mention that they are using an older fifth wheel model that has a flat nose. You may run into issue if you have and older model fifth wheel and a shorter bed than 6.5. Bottom line I have been extremely pleased with my purchase of the Andersen Ultimate fifth wheel hitch and would recommend this product to anyone that wants the easy set up and connection.
We have the Anderson Hitch installed on our 2017 Ford SuperDuty and pull a Reflection 337RLS. We have traveled over 4,000 miles and have been extremely satisfied. The hitch allows plenty of clearance between 5th wheel, bed, and the truck cab. Hook-up and disconnect has always been easy, even with RV lots that were uneven dirt lots. I use Curt thin rubber sound dampeners (item 16900) and this provides a quiet, tight fit between the rails and hitch. Of course the light weight makes it easy to remove when not towing and less weight when you are towing. A great product for the right truck, trailer combination.

Curt Q20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Nissan Titan XD Towing Prep Package - Dual Jaw - 20,000 lbs
So far, so good. Easy to install in the Titan XD with gooseneck prep kit. I’ll let everyone know how it hooks up and pulls, but I expect no issues.
Received an E-mail 5 days ago saying it was still on back order and would be notified when they received them and were shipped. Received E-mail yesterday that I had received my order. Found the boxes on front porch. Some rips in the boxes, but no damage to the hitch. UPS may be unhappy since I wasn't home and he had to carry it up a flight of stairs. Hitch is much heavier than my B & W. Took about 5 minutes to assemble and install in Nissan Titan XD with pucks. Too much ice and snow to use yet. Removed it from truck in about a minute. Way faster than my B & W turnover. I'll update review after I tow with the hitch.

Great Hitch, very happy with this unit. Have pulled the 18K lb fifth wheel over 25K miles (Florida to Idaho, back to Florida and now Alaska). We have covered many rough roads and challenging situations, without problems and have never had a bad couple. The hitch indicator on front of head gives a clear indication of latching condition, and the latch handle has a locking pin for added protection. This pin is the only issue I have had, which can be trapped under the slide plate if your truck is at an angle (beyond about 35 deg) from the rv. I make it a point to pull this pin prior to backing if I am the least bit concerned. This is a great hitch! Excellent quality and it's made here in America.

Demco Recon 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Single Jaw - Above Bed - 21,000 lbs
Easily assembled and matted up with my existing super slide mounting brackets in the bed of truck.
The truck that got the install is a 2002 Ford F350 Super Duty 7.3 L Diesel dually. The Demco Recon 5th wheel hitch (DM8550043) looks like a well made, heavy duty hitch. All the welds are precise and well done. I like the single wrap around jaw with the real thick bar that backs that up. The handle that pulls out to unlock the jaw moves with ease and locks in the out position when the jaw opens. When the king pin comes in contact with the back of jaw, the jaw wraps around the king pin, the handle closes, you put in the safety pin and your ready to go RVing. I chose the Husky Custom Rails and installation kit (HT31405-686) for my install. The reason I chose these rails over the ones that etrailer had matched up for the hitch is, I had previously installed a set of Airlift Airbags and I didn't want the rail install to interfere with the airbags. It was a good choice, there was no interference at all. If I had not had the bags, I would have chose the rails and install kit that require no drilling. Drilling the holes went very fast and easy, it was torking the rear bolts down that was very difficult. There was not enough room to get a wrench of any kind around the nut. I wound up using a set of vise grips on the nut while a friend of mine torked the bolt slowly from above. All and all I'm happy with the product and I'll give another review in a year.

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.
