Expert Reply:
The gooseneck trailer hitch I recommend for your 1997 Ford F-250 is the Curt Double Lock, Flip and Store Underbed Gooseneck Hitch part # C60723. This gooseneck hitch is a custom fit so no drilling into the frame is required and it has a unique storage feature that lets you flip the hitch ball upside down in the receiver tube. The hitch also as the name states has dual locking pins for added security.
If you ever need to tow a 5th wheel trailer there are adapters for this like the Curt X5 5th Wheel Base Rails Adapter for Curt Double Lock Gooseneck Trailer Hitches part # C16210 which could then be paired with the Curt E16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # C16115.
