The clear leader in the field is the Automated Safety Hitch, which has the added benefit of including heavy duty brakes, a two-ton axle and automated attaching and detaching. It extends the length of your truck, which is an added safety benefit, and then takes the pin weight of the RV using a standard fifth wheel hitch.
