Expert Reply:

The B&W Heavy-Duty Trailer Hitch Receiver # BWHDRH25600 is going to be the best overall hitch for your 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD work truck with the 8' bed. This receiver is rated for up to 1,600lbs of tongue weight and 16,000lbs of trailer weight with or without a weight distribution hitch.

In the event you are using a slide in camper or need an extension the TorkLift SuperHitch Magnum Trailer Hitch Receiver # TLC1211-30 is going to be the best option. This will make it easier to install tie-downs for a slide in camper and the dual receiver accepts the Torklift SuperTruss Hitch Extension # TLE1548 for hauling a trailer with slide in camper which extends past the tailgate.
