Hitch Drop
Got my 2019 F250, need to buy a new Hitch Ball Mount. Going with an adjustable, haul a variety of trailers, big and small. I'm curious what is working for you guys? I was thinking 8" Drop would work, but a 10" is available in the same model mount. The 10" will hang about 11" from the ground, too close IMO. Opinions?

I run the Fastway solid steel HD ball mount. 2000 lb tongue and 20k max rating. The thing is a beast and very heavy. I'm sure the aluminum ones are fine but I still dont trust them.

HST,
Is the Fastway SSBM hitch very loud, meaning does it fit on your F350 loosely or does the ball portion have any slack in it? I was planning to get a B&W when I saw this. I like the additional rating over the B&W, just wondering about the build quality of the Fastway. There are very limited reviews on this ball mount but it looks like a good one.

8" drop should meet all you needs unless you towing a garden tractor mulch cart. 
With that said, if you have or plan on towing TT, then the Anderson WDH would be a good choice to consider.
Ease of set up and when not using the WDH portion will tow all other trailers.
Otherwise, I have towed utility 20' trailer and our 33" TT with this B&W stowable ball set up with good results.
