I think you only have two options with the 2011 and 2012 SuperDuty 5th wheel prep package. Either B&W or Reese...

I'd get the B&W. They are very solidly built and clunk-free,very quiet.

Agree...

I'm going with the B&W too...when it comes time to purchase. I recently ordered a 2012 F250 4x4 Lariat with the prep package. So...the B&W will be plug-N-play setup.
