Expert Reply:
For your 2019 Chevy Silverado 2500 with the OEM puck system I recommend going with the B&W Companion 5th wheel line of hitches because of their American-made heavy-duty construction, ease of use, and how satisfied other customers are with this hitch.
The Companion comes in a 20K item # BWRVK3770 sliding version if you have the 6-1/2' bed but if you have the 8' bed then there is both a 20K item # BWRVK3700 and a 25K item # BWRVK3705 option. Two of the most noticeable features of this 5th wheel hitch are the 1" thick dual-locking jaws and how easy the head is to remove from the base. The jaws help to give you a comfortable ride while the removable head makes installing and removing the hitch much easier than lifting the whole hitch.
Attached are some review videos for you to check out.
The B&W Companion weighs over 150 lbs. If that's not something you're interested in moving by yourself and don't want to have to rely on someone to help you then I recommend purchasing the B&W 5th Wheel Lifting Device for Companion and Patriot Hitches item # BWRVXA3130. This heavy duty steel tool lets you lift your B&W 5th-wheel hitch from your truck bed with a hoist. The 5th-Wheel jaws clamp around the device for a secure grip.
