For your 2016 Ford F-250 short bed with the factory 5th wheel prep package I recommend Demco HiJacker hitch # DM8550038. This hitch fits directly into the puck system with no adapter needed. The hitch features 14 inches of travel and is slides automatically so you won't have to get in an out of the truck to slide it back. I have included a link to a video review of this hitch for you.
To add an in-bed 7-Way trailer connector you can use # C56000. It plugs in-line with a factory 7-Way.
