In the maker's words
Before you tow
- “The VF8 must be fully placed on a tow truck bed for transporting.”
- “Wheel rotation can generate electricity in the EDS. This could result in overheating of HV components or cause further damage.”

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 ↗
