Gooseneck hitches

What do you have? What do you like about? What do you dislike?

B&w. Easy to install. Remove the ball when you don't need it and they make a 5th wheel adapter.
I've never heard anyone that has one complain about it.

I went with the equivalent to the b&w but in he draw tite. It's basically the same but 130$ cheaper. Only downside is that the accessories don't interchange with the b&w so you can't borrow your buddy's 4" set back. But I've been happy with mine.

I just put a blue ox in; very nice

<$300 on amazon; get 'used' from amazon deals @ $239

I had ordered 'used'; came in missing one box.
Complained; they sent a return tag, and re-shipped brand new at used price.
can't go wrong

X6...B&W in all my trucks.

jta · Oct 22, 2015

Those are 2 of the 3 I'm looking at. What about Popup hitch? Anybody using either of their hitches?

Running a curt setup in mine. So far no issues.

Had one in all of my trucks so far. Helped to install others but B&W has it figured out.

I looked at the ratings on both and what accessories were available with each. I just couldn't justify 130$ more for virtually the same thing. I do have to say that the installation wasn't as easy as the B&W hitches I have installed for my buddies. I don't know whether it is because of the DPF and the weasel piss tank under there or if it's just the hitch itself, but I am glad it's done. This is what I bought.

That's what I'm thinking. I like the Popup turn over. I found it for $315

Re:

My B&W latch won't stay open for some reason, always need someone to pull the latch while I flip the ball.
Other than that I love it!

Re: Gooseneck hitches

I just bought/installed the Bulldog one. Bought on e bay, pretty sure it's a b&w knock off. Good product for the money.
