Great video. Just picked up our first 5th wheel, and went ahead and had dealer install. Was a nice smooth 7 hour drive home from picking up. Only mine is the 2nd gen goose box. Only thing they forgot to do was grease up the coupler. I’m sure you seen the little grease zerk on the bottom.
You noted the turn angles a few times in your video. Does the truck tell you the angle? I just got my new 2023 F350 and it shows the trailer angle graphically, but I don’t see an option to show the actual number of degrees. Thanks for making this video, I just installed the same setup on my Solitude 280.
Is this the new gen Reese goose box ? I thought with new design it would clear those bed rails better? I’m think about changing 2021 f350 dually to 2023 f350 short bed with this set up.. I have a momentum 381 pin weight 2800 pounds just wondering if I would be fine with payload and backing clearance I know new truck payload cap is 4050
Keep an eye on the rails from your retractable tonneau. Im not sure on the Gen 3 Goosebox but Gen 1 and 2 will wipe those rails out. Not the top but the inner lip.
Great video. I just ordered reese pinbox but have the f350 with 8' 2" bed, will I need the offset hitch to allow for tailgate clearance as well? Know anyone with that setup?
Thank you for posting this Sir, very helpful. Now that you had the set up for awhile, have does tow down the hwy with 5 inch offset? Just bought a GD 310 GK and I am in the process of setting it up. Thank you
We're considering doing this also. Do you have a Ford pickup? Two questions, did it have the factory puck system in the bed and how did you turn the sound off when backing up with your tailgate down?
Good video, i just installed the gen 3 gb on our 365 pack 16, ready to go try it, had the lippert fixed gb when we bought trailer last year, sold hitch to put the reese on for this year, is your trailer the pack 16 as well?
Sorry, I don’t have a camper, but are there any warranty concerns with camper manufacturers about using a gooseneck instead of a fifth wheel hitch? The fifth wheel hitch in the bed was always a concern for me. This looks like a great solution.
Can you measure from the back window to the center of the ball? I have a ‘23 short box super duty ordered. Is that a Pace Edwards Ultragroove cover? Have you towed yet? Wondering if the 5” offset affects handling.
What do you do for a living? Nice big garage, different trucks and campers and those hitches are not cheap 😂 if you don’t mind sharing I’d appreciate it. Maybe look into your career.

I just purchased my Goosebox and I love it. It does not come with safety chains, so get ready for another $85.00 to finish the job.
Running the same 20K GooseBox on my 2020 Denali 3500 SRW towing a Montana 3811MS - I wouldn't run anything else but a GooseBox - great setup!
Awesome. I have been thinking about this exact setup for when I get my truck and trailer!
ProTip: When you lower it down on the ball, set the latch to the 'closed' position, first....

Sleek setup! Thanks for the video. With new setup, what is your overall height if you know it?

I wish they made that offset for the nissan titan xd factory puck setup.

Are those rhino box wings on the trailer?
I don't know if you mentioned this, but what made you decide on the Reese Goosebox over a Gen-Y Executive hitch?
What’s U-R Highest Point on theFifthwheel is. & Hight.
