Recommended 5th Wheel Hitch for a 2020 Ford F-150 Short Bed  

Updated 10/27/2025 | Published 03/02/2025

Question:

What would be the best 5th wheel hitch setup for a 2020 f150 with a 5.5 bed? I’m purchasing a 29ft 5th wheel with a max weight of 10,000 pounds and has a curt turning point pin.

Hey Nick, I'd go with the Demco Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Ford F150 # DM46TV. This is an auto-slide hitch that has a 13,000 lb capacity, can be used with the Turning Point pin box (if you lock the pin box out), and includes the base rails for install.

Being that it is an auto-slide hitch you won't have to get out of the truck to move the hitch back whenever you go to make a tight turn, which saves you a lot of time and effort.

Do you have any cool plans with the new trailer? Let me know if there is anything else I can do for you!

Hey Nick, how did the Demco Autoslide hitch work out with your F150 and the 29-foot trailer? Your experience could point others toward the right setup for short-bed trucks.
