For your 2019 Chevy Silverado 2500 with the OEM puck system I recommend going with the B&W Companion 5th wheel line of hitches because of their American-made heavy-duty construction, ease of use, and how satisfied other customers are with this hitch.
The Companion comes in a 20K # BWRVK3770 sliding version if you have the 6-1/2' bed but if you have the 8' bed then there is both a 20K # BWRVK3700 and a 25K # BWRVK3705 option. Two of the most noticeable features of this 5th wheel hitch are the 1" thick dual-locking jaws and how easy the head is to remove from the base. The jaws help to give you a comfortable ride while the removable head makes installing and removing the hitch much easier than lifting the whole hitch.
If you won't have a tonneau cover for the hitch to cover it while you are camping then you may also be interested in the Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Cover # RP30055 for the hitch head and then the padlock # ML4140KALH to lock the Companion to the pucks on your pickup.
