Hey Jack, thanks for reaching out!
I really like the B&W Companion because it's easy to use and incredibly reliable. It's been a staple in the 5th wheel industry for a number of years now, and the B&W after-purchase support is unmatched. Your GMC should be able to use a stationary hitch even with a short bed, so I recommend the following parts depending on if you have the OEM pucks or not:
With OEM Pucks
- B&W Companion # BWRVK3715
Without OEM Pucks
- B&W Gooseneck Hitch # BWGNRK1020
- B&W Companion # BWRVK3500
Please feel free to reach out if you have any other questions!
