Congrats on the new truck! Since you already have the Blue Ox Patriot Braking System item # BLU37TR you may also need the Second Vehicle Breakaway Kit for Blue Ox Patriot Supplemental Braking Systems item # BRK2505 and definitely the 12 Volt Outlet Kit, 20 amps item # RM-9332 to power the Patriot.
The other parts you will need to flat tow your F-150 along with any installation videos we may have are listed below:
Tow Bar and Safety Chains - Blue Ox Avail Non-Binding Tow Bar item # BX7420
Base Plate Kit - Blue Ox Base Plate Kit item # BO74FR or item # RM-524431-5 if you already have a Roadmaster Tow Bar
Wiring Harness - Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit item # RM-15267 or the RoadMaster 6-Wire Trailer Connector item # RM-910030-7 and the Universal Hy-Power Diode Wiring Kit item # RM-152 if you already have the flexo-coil.
Charge Line Kit - Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit item # RM-156-25
