What Hitch For 150 Series
I have the same truck (your bed should be 6’9”) and I tow a 150 series, using a B&W Patriot slider.
Warranty isn’t void if you just use it like any other standard king pin, don’t use the turning point, it wears out the bearings anyway.
I’ve just hit 4000 miles of towing in the past six months and have backed into countless tight spots and never once needed that feature. And if I ever did need to back up that sharply all I have to do is use the slider feature on the hitch.
Just leave the wedge bolted to the arm like mine:

Papahoosh - A manual slider hitch is another alternative. There are a number of benefits beyond just cap to cab clearance to use the manual slider every time you back the trailer or hitch/unhitch. See post 15 of this thread. https://www.mygrandrv.com/fo...479#post162479

new to 5th wheel, from a Class A gas. dealer installed a Reese Slider manual hitch, took me and 3 tech at dealer to hook first time, found hitch defective, had dealer replace with a Pull Rite auto glide slider, works absolutely amazing. Had to back into driveway off a busy street, did a 90 degree jack with 4 inches clearance from cab to RV, on a 2018 F150 6 ft bed. Have not had much experience towing but for backing this hitch is a dream.

Andersen Ultimate Fifth Wheel Hitch. I'm also towing with a 3/4 ton truck and use it so as not to max out my payload or rear axle too quickly.
