5th-wheel trailer hitch
A Class IV/V hitch that mounts in the pickup bed and uses a plate in the bed of the truck (similar to a semi-tractor) and a pin on the trailer. Similar to a gooseneck trailer hitch (both mount inside the bed of a truck); however, a 5th-wheel hitch uses a pin and latch to mount the trailer to the bed. A gooseneck uses a ball and latch.
