Weight distribution hitch

Anyone have experience with the Reese Straight-Line hitches? Good? Bad? Indifferent?

Any new weight distribution system should work fine IF it's properly setup and you're towing within your trucks factory specs, most of them are very similar in how they operate.

Weight Distribution Hitch

I've been using that hitch for years. I've used it pulling a 35 foot Dutchmen with two slides with both a 2002 F250 and a 2011 F150 Eccoboost. I'm currently using it with a 32 foot Shasta Revere with a single slide and Ram 2500 Diesel, I also pulled the Shasta with the F150. It is a great hitch for larger travel trailers, holds the fish tailing to almost nothing. The only time I have an issue is with a high wind from the side, but I had that with a 5th wheel.

Great choice with much better sway control than a hitch with just resistive sway control. The hitch not only helps prevent sway, it actually corrects a sway condition by seeking center.
