Install a receiver on the truck and then purchase a drop hitch of your choice. Receiver will cost you around $125 and the drop hitch around $35 with ball. A receiver type hitch is the only way to go. Towing off the bumper is a bad idea.
7,000 lbs. can be towed safely with a 1977 Chevy truck. More can be towed if a good receiver hitch is installed instead of a bumper hitch.
The truck requires a 2 inch receiver. The attachments would be matched to the trailer.
3000 lbs on the bumper ball mount or 5000 on an actual receiver hitch that mounts to the frame.
The F350 is a class V, the F150 is a class IV. If you are asking hoping that they are interchangable, not likely. Each hitch is designed to mount to the specific width and shape of the frame rails of each series of truck.
In may depend on your state, for example; I had been pulled over due to this in Washington and could have received a ticket
I have a very big and shiny hitch on my truck
You need to get a hitch for the truck first. After you have the correct hitch, you need to also get the rest of the towing equipment such as sway bars, lights, and safety chains.
It's relatively easy to install your own hitch to your truck. You just have to order and purchase the right sized part, and then bolt it onto the tail of the truck.
Yes there is and you could get a ticket for having it pluged in..

The brand of a truck hitch doesn't really matter when deciding which pulls the most load. You just want to make sure that you're getting a hitch that is made of solid metal.
