Expert Reply:

Both the Curt # C24FR and the B&W Companion # BWRVK3715 have a 25K capacity. Both are a high quality product. Here are some of the differences:

• The B&W Companion is made in the USA while the Curt is manufactured overseas
• The Curt can adjust from 13-17 inches in height, while the B&W adjusts from 16-3/4 to 18-34. The B&W would
offer more clearance between the top of the bed sides and the underside of the trailer loft
• The B&W provides a cam-action latch handle that won't bind up if the truck and 5th wheel are on uneven
pavement
• The Curt A25 is somewhat less expensive

If I had to choose between the two, I'd go with the B&W, unless I was on a tight budget or I was concerned about the clearance between the bed sides and the underside of the trailer loft.
