Question

Question:

What hitch do I need to pull 3 slant,19.5foot gooseneck, with a 7foot loft with my 2012 Ford F150 Lariat with a 5.5foot short bed? The gooseneck loft has a rounded front starting at 4foot from the horse compartment of the trailer.

For your 2012 Ford F-150 5-1/2 foot bed the best gooseneck solution is the B and W Turnoverball hitch part # BWGNRK1104 with the offset hitch ball part # BWGNXA4085.

We can't guarantee how much turning clearance you have since your trailer has a round nose but this is the best option available.
