Expert Reply:
We have some hitches that will fit right into the factory prep package in your 2016 Ford F-350! Since the trailer weighs 18,000 pounds I recommend going with either the 20K Curt Q20, # C16530-16017, or the 24K Curt Q24, # C16545-16017.
If you plan to upgrade trailers in the future I would go with the 24K model because you never know what you might need to tow. I have linked video reviews of these hitches for you.
