Question:
I have a 2018 ram 2500 w long bed and factory pucks. We are buying a 5th wheel this week and I need a 5th wheel hitch. Can you please recommend a couple? I looked at several products already and in them you advise that if you drive down washboard, you dont recommend X. Can you please recommend a few that do well with washboard?

A lot of people refer to the B and W Companion hitches as the gold standard of fifth wheel hitches so you can't go wrong with the part # BWRVK3600. What people rave about this hitch is how quiet and smooth it is as well as how well it's proven itself over the years as being super reliable.
The only other hitch that rivals it is the Demco UMS part # DM67GV which also is knowing to be really quiet and smooth. It's a newer design so it's maybe not as proven but it's jaw design, cushioning and very low clearances are going to keep the noise to a minimum.
