For your 2022 Ford F-150 I recommend the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e63TR. This is a Class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It features a bolt-on installation and comes with a limited lifetime warranty. The maximum gross trailer weight is 6,000 lbs and the max tongue weight is 900 lbs.

What sets this hitch apart is the matte black powder coat finish. The finish does a better job of hiding dirt and scratches when compared to a glossy finish. It also gives it a more rugged appearance. The # e63TR is made in the USA.

If you need a ball mount to go with it, I recommend the etrailer Ball Mount Kit # 989900. This kit has two ball mounts, one with a 3/4" rise or 2" drop and the other with a 2-3/4" rise or 4" drop. It also comes with a 1-7/8" and 2" ball, as well as a ball mount bag to store everything in.

I have attached a review video for your reference.

If you are considering a frame mounted hitch over your bumper ball mount/hitch I would recommend you go ahead and go the frame hitch route. This will give you quite a bit more towing capacity and the ability to use a different rise/drop ball mount so…
