In the maker's words
Before you tow
- “Rear-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive trucks should not be dinghy-towed. Towed vehicles (or dollies or trailers carrying them) should have a separate functional braking system.”
- “Use extra caution whenever towing another vehicle.”
Other options
Can't flat tow it? Here's what works
A version that can't go four wheels down can still travel on a car trailer or, where the maker allows, a tow dolly. Ford's towing guide adds: “Ford Motor Company recommends that a separate functional brake system be used on any towed vehicle, including those dolly-towed or towbar-towed.” p. 3 ↗
