will a traeger grill, 18 inches, fit between the hitch and bed wall next to cab with this hitch. BandW Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider for Ford Super Duty - Dual Jaw - 18,000 lbs. Truck is Super Duty 6.5 bed no puck system.

Expert Reply:
Hey Tim! Yes, with that 18" measurement your Traeger grill will be able to sit between the B&W Patriot # BW25QR and the cab. The bed in your 2026 Ford Super Duty short bed is approximately 81.9" long, and the rear mounting rail installs 29-3/8" forward of the rear edge of the bed.
The Patriot has a footprint that is 31-3/4" wide x 33-1/2" deep. Since the hitch actually sits rearward on the mounting rails, you're cutting that down a bit leaving more than enough room to fit the grill in that space.
What are you towing with the F-250?
