Question:
I am purchasing a 5th wheel RV that comes with the Turning Point Pin Box. I am learning i cant use the Andersen Ultimate hitch that I wanted. MY Titan zzz XD has the factory Gooseneck. What is the easiest and lightest option for a hitch that will utilize my Gooseneck?

The easiest and lightest 5th wheel hitch available that will attach to the factory gooseneck pucks in your 2017 Nissan Titan XD and is compatible with a rotating pin box is the Curt E16 # C16515-16026. This hitch features an overall weight of 195 pounds but one of its benefits is that it uses a 2-pin head removal design that lets you easily take the hitch out of the bed in a couple of more manageable pieces.
For reference the head assembly by itself weighs 68 pounds and the base weighs 127 pounds.
The E16 features a dual-pivoting head to help with hookup and 4 different height adjustments so you can maintain a level setup when connected to the trailer. It has a 16,000 pound towing weight capacity. I have attached a short video review that you can check out as well.
To use this with the Revolution Pin Box you will also need to add the Custom Wedge # C16991 to prevent the king pin from pivoting in the hitch.
