Expert Reply:
For a fifth wheel hitch for your 2008 Ford F150 with a 6-1/2 foot bed you could use a Curt E5 16K Fifth Wheel Trailer hitch with R16 Roller # 16516. You will also need a rail and installation kit, for that you would want a CURT Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit # C16441-104. This is a custom kit that will install in about half the time as a universal kit and will minimize drilling.
I attached installation instructions for both products and an FAQ article on fifth wheel hitches for you to check out.
