I had a lady slam into the back of my 84 Bronco with a Chevy Malibu... well my hitch/ball made quite a nice radiator drain....
To answer OP question.. Yes Ford offered a Tow Package on '06 F-150's quite a nice one if you ask me!
No sure what a "But" hitch is?

cwj06, not sure how to tell if that '06 has tow pkg. might check for oil cooler & trans cooler or possible VIN code(from dealer). Someone could have removed the " but hitch "

a but hitch is something that occurs in your pants on an extremely hot day.

04-08 F-150 came 3 ways.
1. With Tow Package
Class IV Reciever
A 4 pin and 7 pin wiring harness
Upgraded Trans Cooler
8,000 to 10,000 lb capacity depending on wheelbase and motor/tire combo
2. Reciever
Only a Class III reciever I believe, nothing else
Limited to 5,000 lbs capacity
3. No Reciever
just a empty bumper

Are you asking if it comes with a hitch/ball combo? If so then mine did not come with one. I bought a tri ball from Walmart.

You can't remove just the hitch.. The bumper bolts to the factory hitch..
I guess you could and install whatever is used in the non-factory hitch model...
Although, if you had a factory "but hitch" maybe some baby powder would help remove it..
