Expert Reply:
The best brake controller for a 2020 Ford F-150 is the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake Controller part # RED44FR which is a plug and play fit when using the Redarc Plug-and-Play Wiring Harness for Tow-Pro Trailer Brake Controllers part # 331-TPH-007. The Redarc Tow-Pro Elite is the only brake controller on the market that has both user controlled and proportional braking modes which allows you to take full control of the trailer's brakes even offroad.
The best part of all is that the only part of the controller that is visible is the control knob therefore the appearance will be very much like factory especially when using the Mounting Panel for Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake Controller Control Knob part # 331-TPSI-001. Furthermore, there isn't a bulky controller taking up leg room under the dash. The plug you will need to locate is behind the pocket in the dash near the steering column.
I have attached a photo of where the plug will be located as well.
