B&w rvk3300

Friend of mine just recently bought himself a new F350. They're travel trailer folks but now the fifth wheel hunt is slowly but steadily picking up steam.

He has the puck system and was looking at the Reese Elite. That's what I have. But he just sent me a text about a new B&W RVK3300 on Amazon for $1000. Not sure why he's looking around at others because he knows very little about fifth wheels and their hitches.

But I told him I've heard nothing but good things on the forums about B&Ws. But is there anything he needs to know or is this a good option for his F350?

The campers they're looking at are probably around the 15,000 lb. loaded range.

Yep. Check eTrailer and Tweety’s. Then also check the local distributors of the product. I had a guy sell me one as cheaply as anywhere I could find it online (of course, I was also talking to him about installing the Turnoverball Gooseneck as my truck didn’t come with pucks).

That said, it’s a great hitch if you have factory pucks.

If the truck comes with a Gooseneck, the Andersen is also a great hitch.
