short box vs long box

As long as you have no parking or heavy traffic issues, I highly recommend the long bed. It rides better under tow and you have a lot more usable cargo space in front of the hitch for things like tool boxes and extra fuel tanks. As far as your slider hitch goes, you should't need it, however unless you have money to burn, keep it, it won't make any difference. If your shopping for a new hitch, I would go with the B & W Companion. With regard to the post above, Ford did not have the "puck" system in 2006.
