Unlurking-I just checked the SportTrac towing tips link you recommended. There's some pretty good info there. Thanks. It also refers to a complete Ford RV and towing tips brochure at this address:
http://www.fordvehicles.com/assets/p...VTTgde9-18.pdf
that adds some good info that is not in the SportTrac brochure (along with towing info on Ford's complete line of trucks, SUVs and vans. Some of this info is pretty good stuff for trailering newbies to see, with definitions of towing terms and towing equipment, how to weigh a vehicle and other good stuff that applies to towing with any brand of motor vehicle.
(
I haven't owned a Ford for over 40 years, so I have no bias toward their products.)
