So long as your 2020 Chevy Silverado 1500 is a gas version and not a diesel, then the EcoHitch front hitch you asked about does indeed fit, with the correct part number being the following:

- EcoHitch Hidden Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # EH58RR

As far as the install, there isn't anything particularly tricky about it, but ease is pretty subjective. You'll have to temporarily remove your tow hooks (if you have them), and the plastic skid panel but they get reinstalled, and you'll have to trim a 3" x 5-1/2" rectangle 1/4" below the license plate like in the photo I added below. Otherwise, it is just bolted onto your Chevy's fame.
