Expert Reply:

Hey Bob, thanks for writing in, and you got yourself one heck of a truck with the 2024 Silverado 2500HD. And though you'll need an adapter since you have the factory prep package you can definitely use the Andersen Ultimate Connection 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch System # AM3200.

All you'll need is the Adapter Rails for Curt 5th Wheel Hitch - Ford and Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package # C88KR.

Though the title of the adapter says "for Curt 5th Wheel Hitch", it is actually for any standard 5th wheel hitch, including the # AM3200. The Andersen will do superbly with the Forest River Wildwood Heritage Glen Hyper-Lyte 29RLSHL, as the hitch is rated for 20k and the trailer is just over 10,500 lbs.

So you'll get a lightweight, simple to use hitch that has more than enough capacity for the trailer, and is very easy to to take in and out so your Chevy always has a clean, open bed.
