Expert Reply:
If your 2020 Ford F-350 is a long bed model, or if your 5th wheel has the dished-in front corners to allow turning clearance so the front of the fifth wheel doesn't collide with the rear of the truck cab, then yes, the Demco # DM8550045 Recon would be a good choice that's compatible with the Ford Factory Goosneck ball that fits in the factory tow/prep package.
This hitch isn't compatible with rotating pin boxes such as the Reese Sidewinder/Revolution or the Lippert Turning Point.
If you don't already have a trailer connector installed in the truck bed, you can install one using the Curt # C57008.
