Can you flat tow a 2019 Ford Explorer?
I’m thinking about buying a Ford Explorer, but before I do, I want to make sure that I can tow it behind my truck without a flatbed. Is it possible to flat tow a 2019 Ford Explorer?

You might be able to flat tow your 2019 Ford Explorer, but it depends on the drivetrain and what you have under the hood. If you have a two-wheel-drive/rear-wheel-drive version of the Explorer, you’ve cleared the first hurdle. However, your Explorer also needs to have either a 3.5-liter or 3.7-liter engine under the hood.
If you have any engine other than the 3.5-liter or 3.7-liter or a four-wheel-drive version, you cannot flat tow the 2019 Explorer. Instead, you’ll need to purchase a flatbed trailer to tow the vehicle without damaging any of the components or underpinnings.
Every road trip is exciting, but you still need to iron out some other details before you leave. Reviewing and comparing car insurance quotes is always ideal so you can cut down your
