Exactly what do you mean by "the truck currently doesn't have a hitch"? A hitch consists of a "receiver" and a "drawbar". The hitch head is mounted to the drawbar. I have never ever seen a F150 that didn't come with a receiver.

A number of F150s don't come with tow packages.
A fellow firefighter had the Harley Davidson edition and it had no tow package or receiver.

When I bought mine I set it up for tow haul and not gas mileage and am very happy with the job it does. Everybody has given you some good advise the ball is know in your court. Good luck
It all honesty. It may be better, and possibly less expensive to trade the truck, and get one with a higher GVWR, and factory tow package. adding the tow package after market gets sort of pricey, and when you are done. You will still have a low GVWR and high geared truck. I don't believe you will be happy towing the 6000lb + TT with that truck. Unless of course, You decide to change the gears as well. Again. spendy.

Thanks everyone for your advice. Some asked for more info about the tow vehicle. The sticker on the door states GVWR of 6800 and the AXLE 27, which I think is a 3.31.
The truck doesn't currently have a hitch. I'm planning to add a Curt hitch with 1000 lbs tongue weight and 10000 towing capacity.
