Question:

I have a Ford F 250 2003 with a 8FT.Bed I want to know if the 5th wheel I am referring to C16265 has the power or is suitable to move a car hauler or car trailer that is a carrier for 3 cars or 2 trucks? Is the price includes all parts rail and hardware necessary for the installation.

Expert Reply:

As far as fifth wheel hitches go the Curt Q25 # C16265 does have a higher capacity at 25,000 lbs which would be a great option. But you'd have to consider the weight of the trailer you plan to tow plus the weight of the cars as well.

This is just the hitch though. You will need to install a rail kit in the bed of your 2003 Ford F-250 as well so that the hitch has something to attach to. For that you would want the # C16443-204 which has been confirmed as a fit for your truck and would work well.
