B & W Patriot 16K Hitch
I just ordered a new truck and would like to get a new hitch to go with the truck. I have had a Husky 16K hitch for the last 15 years that I would like to replace. I've been looking at the B & W Patriot 16K hitch, I would appreciate any input, pro's and con's

I have nothing but good things to say about B&W products either. Their customer service is second to none and their product are 100% made in the USA, unlike MANY other brands.

I have had mine for a year now and love it. The wrap around jaws hold the pin tight no rattling. Easy to take in and out because the head lifts off. And made in the USA.
