You can definitely use the Curt Q20 for the puck system on your 2021 Ford F-250 but you'll need an adapter or a different base unit to get these to work together.
If you have the Q20 that fits into the puck system on your Chevy then you need the Round Tube Slider # C16020 for a short bed or the Hitch Legs # C16017 for a long bed. These fit directly to your OEM puck system so you'll just need to swap out the head unit.
If your Q20 mounts to industry standard rails then you can either use one of the leg kits mentioned above or you can use the Adapter Rails # C88KR which fit into the puck system and give you attachment points that match the industry standard rail spacing.
