I just bought a 2017 F-350 to upgrade from my 2008.
Now my 5th wheel hitch won't work unless I buy a complete new style.
I'm not real happy to find this out and I'm sure others fill the same.
I've used Pullrite for years, Sliders, and up to 20.5K hitch's.
But they can't be adapted to these new style trucks.
You have to buy a truck with (5th Wheel Prep, or buy the frame adapters and drill the box like my last one.
I almost went to a Reese if they weren't built in (another country).
Now I have a spare outdated or Obsolete hitch.

So you opted to not get the puck system in yours? Loved that system in my Ram. I used my old hitch by purchasing the new style legs. There was also the picture frame adapter you could buy to use the old style hitch. Sounds like not opting for the puck system could end up costing a lot more in the long run.
