Reese has introduced the M5, a new fifth-wheel hitch that features the exclusive ready-to-receive patent-pending Talon jaw system.
According to a press release, the M5 offers several benefits for RVers, including a tow/no tow indicator, shock-dampening system, and an ergonomic, easy-to-reach handle. Tighter tolerances provide less noise, less chucking and an overall solid connection. Additionally, the M5’s fully articulating head, which boasts 20% more landing area, aids towers in coupling on uneven terrain while the built-in v-notch helps target the trailer’s king pin into its proper place.
“Towing today is much more advanced than it was years ago, which is why Reese has included so many unique features into the design of the M5,” said Tom Stalder, senior product manager, RV and industrial. “Our engineers understand the marketplace and the needs of our customers. With its innovative technology, durable construction, and sleek design, the M5 is expected to be a must-have for the modern-day tower.”
The M5 (PN: 30890), made to fit GM pickup trucks with a factory tow package, is finished with a durable powder coat and corrosion-resistant zinc on the handles, latches and jaw. The hitch is tested to SAE J2638 standards, and is backed by a lifetime limited warranty. The M5 will be available in spring 2018.
