Pros
- The lowest priced hitch here that still pivots side to side for smoother hookups on uneven ground
- Four height positions fit most truck bed heights without extra parts
- The head comes off in about 60 lb pieces, so one person can clear the bed
- Limited lifetime warranty
Cons
- A slide bar jaw rather than wraparound jaws, so expect more clunking than the A series
- A 16,000 lb rating limits it to smaller fifth wheels
- Rails or a puck kit cost extra
