Question:

Towing with a bumper Hi I have a Ford F-150 2019 4x4 6 seats I believe it’s the 10 speed. I want to tow a 2011 Nissan Rogue with a U-Haul trailer is that possible.

I pulled up the online version of the owner's manual for your 2019 Ford F-150 and it lists a towing capacity of 5,000 pounds when using just the bumper (not a trailer hitch and ball mount). I do still recommend verifying this in your personal copy of the manual as well. The 2011 Nissan Rogue weighs around 3,200 to 3,500 pounds so you should be well under capacity even after factoring in the weight of the U-Haul trailer itself.

If you still need a hitch ball for your bumper, such as the Tow Ready 2 inch # 63845, I have attached a link that will take you directly to our complete selection.
