White Water, the real questions you should be asking yourself are do you want a rail system or a in-bed ball system and what you might use the truck for. If you have other uses for your truck bed having a flat bed floor is so much nicer than having the rails. Either setup gives you options. After having had 3 previous long beds and hitches, I recently purchased a F350 short bed and an Andersen hitch with the in-bed ball. I am now over 70 and I could no longer install and remove my hitches without help. After doing a lot of research I decided on the Andersen as I can install and remove it by myself very easily as it only weighs about 35-40 lbs. It is also easier to load and unload the 5th wheel in my opinion and I love the short bed manuverability versus the long beds I had. The setup is really nice, easier to use, and it rides extremely well. Make sure you think of all the uses for your rig before you buy anything!!
