"The B&W hitch is the best hitch, period. There is no play in the hitch, and that keeps it from chucking. Though it is rated to 18k, he thinks we will most likely weigh around 16-17 loaded, and that hitch would be fine.
He recommends getting that. Price installed around 1400. Also, can remove from truck with a "clean" bed...also don't have to cut the liner to install."

Au contraire--there has to be a hole in the liner/pickup bed to mount the square pole into the underframe hitch. I know, got one. But they are sweet, if you are under 18K gross trailer weight.
