Although there are no 5 puck mounting systems available as of May 2018, we do have some underbed systems for your 2017 Ford F-250 Super Duty with a 6-3/4' bed.
If the option to tow a gooseneck or 5th wheel trailer with a single underbed system is what you are looking for then the B&W Gooseneck Hitch # BWGNRK1116-5W is what you're needing. This system gives you a gooseneck hitch and hitch ball that is compatible with the B&W Companion Slider # BWRVK3400-5W which allows you to tow a 5th wheel trailer with your gooseneck hitch.
For an underbed kit that is compatible with an autosliding 5th wheel hitch you need the Demco rails # DM8551009 which fit both the 2WD and 4WD options. The Demco Hijacker is the autosliding hitch that you will be using. It comes with an 18K rating # DM8550022 or a 21K rating # DM8550037 and eliminates the time and effort needed to make sharp turns like when you use a manual slider.
Either option is great, but just keep in mind that the Demco rails are only compatible with the Demco hitches that I mentioned. The B&W kit allows you to have more options for towing but you do not get the benefits of an autosliding 5th wheel hitch. I also recommend using the Bargman # 50-97-410-010 which helps make connecting and disconnecting your trailer wiring much easier.
I have attached some review videos for both options that you can check out.
