Question:
I noticed that etrailer does not yet offer an option for 2018 GMC 2500 HD with factory bed rail option. Is the 2017 factory install 5th wheel package the same as the 2018?

Expert Reply:
We have had confirmation that the 2018 GM factory fifth wheel rail kit is the same as the 2017 so if you had a short bed truck you'd want the slider Companion part # BWRVK3770 or if you had a long bed truck you'd want the part # BWRVK3700.
The Companion hitches are considered by most RVers to be the nicest on the market so that's why we recommend them so highly.
