I know the odds are in your favor under normal circumstances, but put in a panic situation I'd prefer the peace of mind knowing my hitch isn't going to buckle. Just my 2 cents....
I have seen the picture for years and it may or may not be a structural failure. I have an Andersen Ultimate mounted on a Reese Rail to the pucks on a Ram 3500 LB. It is not aluminum and does not connect to the goose ball. My hitch is made of steel. It is heavier than the Ultimate 3200 pictured. I also have a letter from Keystone saying they would honor the warranty. Andersen has a warranty that covers any damage as well. The Keystone dealer that sold me the 5th wheel sold and installed the hitch 4 years ago.
