Options for Towing 2020 Grand Design Reflection 303RLS w 2019 Ford F-350 Short Bed OEM Rail Kit
Question:
Hello, Only question I could find on this dealt with 1st Gen Goosebox and Ram 2500 65inch bed. Will Gen 2 work with 2019 F350 CCSB 69inch bed and Ford pucks? If not will it work with BandW Gooseneck turnover ball with 4inch extender? Truck is on order with Ford pucks but will cancel Ford pucks if it doesnt work and BandW does. Trailer is 2020 Grand Design Reflection 303RLS. Thank you in advance.

The older and current generations of the Reese Goosebox adapter part # RP85FR that you referenced are compatible with the factory gooseneck hitch you have on order of the 2019 Ford F-350. That said, since you have a short bed truck you may find that won't have the needed turning clearance and you'd need a slider hitch to provide that.
Best solution overall that I can guarantee will fit and work well is the B and W Companion fifth wheel slider hitch part # BWRVK3370 which fits directly to the factory rail kit of your truck and also provides the needed clearance to make tight turns since it can slide back 12 inches.
I checked out the 2020 Grand Design Reflection 303RLS you mentioned and it has a slight taper to the nose of it which might give you the needed clearance without using a slider hitch. Since the short bed version of your truck is a bit longer than most short beds at 6-3/4 feet that also helps quite a bit as well.
