O

​​​​​​Would this fit (off of 2011 F250) onto a 2019 F350 with OEM “puck” system/fifth wheel prep package? I am just learning, and have opp to buy a camper and they will throw this in for free. To me, the width of the fifth wheel isn’t “wide enough” to fit down into the pucks. Please forgive me, again, I’m just learning.

No, that is a ISR (industry standard rails) hitch. It is not compatible with the Ford Puck system on your new truck, without a $300 adapter.

It's also a pretty low end hitch. Skip it and buy something nicer.

Up in the NW there are several used or purchased and never used ones for sale. The Reese Elite series will fit. the older signature will also work but need an $110.00 adaptor kit.
There is a Elite 25(25,000lbs cap) for sale for $600, never been used. also a few 18 (18,000lbs cap)
curt and B&W also make hitches that fit into the factory puck system

I agree, if you cant find one on the local Craig's list, E-Trailer is probably the best price on new, Amazon is also good.

If you opt to keep your current hitch, they make what many call a "window frame" adapter. It locks into the Ford factory pucks and then your hitch locks into the adapter. But it does raise the hitch up a couple of inches.
I had one for a short time while I had a 5th wheel camper. I sold hitch and adapter to go with a hitch that drops into the pucks, then I ended up selling the camper and never buying the hitch.
Etrailer has about anything you'd need to do it either way. Shop around, Etrailer will price match plus 10%. They honored that deal when I found a Sidewinder hitch for the trailer cheaper somewhere else.
If you get the camper and they're throwing in the hitch, take it. Then sell and put the cash toward your new one.
