It seems they are still moving so I keep getting their answering machine. I'll try again tomorrow.
I called Giant RV in Montclair, CA and they want $600 for the Good 2 Go Concealed Gooseneck Ball, Part No. 206-246 (fits 2006 Megacab per email from Jacque Colibert Clarke himself). Seems pretty steep to me. The B&W Turnover Ball is $333 shipped on Ebay. Still waiting on a call back for the price on the 5th wheel slider.

Giant RV called me back. The Rail Rider 5th Wheel Slider is $1,055.
So, for the Gooseneck and sliding 5th wheel adapter the total from Giant RV is $1,655 plus tax and plus $65 freight charge - about $1,850 out the door.
I can get the B&W Turnover Ball ($333) and 5th Wheel Companion ($689) and 5th Airborne Sidewinder (about $650) for roughly the same price. The 18K Pull-Rite Superglide is also about the same price. But I like the idea of being able to pull just about any 5'ver with the Colibert set-up without having to have a special plate or adapter or whatever. For instance, if my brother needed help moving his Weekend Warrior I could just drive over and hook up without exchanging parts. This could come in handy some day.
