Question:
What hitch would you recommend for my 2016 f150. I have a trailer connector already.

Expert Reply:
The trailer hitch I recommend for your F-150 is The Curt Trailer Hitch receiver, part # C26HR. Take a look at the last picture on the attached installation instructions and make sure that is what you mean by the trailer connector.
This is a Class lll hitch and it has a 2 inch receiver opening. If you plan on doing some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.
If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level
