The Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # 65067 and the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # C31083 are both confirmed to fit your 2020 Ford F-150. They are very similar in design and mount to the same locations on the frame, however the Draw-tite will be slightly lower than the Curt hitch.

Both hitches require trimming of the lower air dam, but you can see in the photos that the cut line and where the receiver tube is slightly higher with the Curt.

Both front hitches have the same weight ratings, 500 lbs vertical load limit, and 9,000 lbs line pull, since they are so similar I recommend the Curt because it does have slightly better ground clearance, which will help with any kind of accessories you mount up.

In case you were looking for a plow too I attached a link to this page that has all of the hitch mounted plows we offer that are designed to work with this hitch, and the instructions for both hitches.
