I'm confused. This thread is about an Andersen WDH, for towing a TT. You have a 5th wheel, which doesn't use a WDH.[emoji848]

bikendan: the weird thing is that this dealer is listed as an Andersen retailer. I was excited about this when I saw them on Andersen's website. Perhaps they are a seller more for Andersen's other products and not so much for the hitches.

I purchased the Andersen, had it in my truck, ready for install, and I foolishly let the dealer talk me out of it. They told me the same lines, and I nievely believed them.
GXP: I get it- I tend to trust the sales people and let them talk me into things, too. My wife just chuckles and calls me a sucker! I actually agreed to the hitch he proposed, but now that I've had a chance to do some research....

Thanks everyone!

Hi all,

A big thanks to everyone for your input! This is super helpful! It's great to hear from you all with insight and experience using these hitches. I'm definitely more confident combining the Andersen hitch with the the Geo Pro.

Now I just gotta wait for the trailer!
