Expert Reply:
A Reese Elite Underbed Mount System is not available for your 2015 Ford F-150. For a system I recommend the Pro Series # PS30121 and the Reese Quick-Install Custom Base Rails and Outboard Installation Kit # RP56034-53. These outboard rails make it easier to access the installation hardware, which helps cut down on installation time.
If you are more interested in the under-bed mount system to be able to have a free truck bed when not towing, the B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitch # BW77FR with the Companion Slider 5th Wheel Hitch # BWRVK3400-5W is a great option. The Companion hitch can be removed when not towing to clear up your truck bed for anything else you need it for. The Turnoverball also provides you with a gooseneck ball in case you need to tow different types of trailers.
I've attached review videos for these products for you.
