Expert Reply:
I spoke to my contact at Blue Ox and they confirmed the Patriot will fit your 2021 Ford F-150 with Active Brakes.
I recommend The Blue Ox Patriot Portable Braking System - Proportional # BLU37TR. The Patriot continually checks the brake pressure on the vehicle being towed, making you aware if the pressure gets too high or low.
You will also need the following:
.
Base Plate kit: depending on your tow bar, I have attached a link to the base plate kits that will fir your F-150.
You will also need a tow bar wiring kit, I recommend the Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267. I recommend this wiring kit because it let's you wire your toad to accept your RV's tail, brake and turn signal lights.
You will need safety cables, I recommend the Blue Ox 7' Safety Cables - 10,000 lbs - Qty 2 # BX88197. I recommend these safety cables because being coiled they don't drag one the ground, allowing them to potentially last longer.
