Expert Reply:

I have a solution for you but you'd have to have a 2 inch hitch installed on your 2018 Ford Taurus like the Curt # C12296. Then you could use the Hollywood Rack RV Rider part # HLY64FR for fat bikes which is confirmed as a fit at the rear of a vehicle that is being flat towed.

When a vehicle is flat towed it will have a slight side to side sway to it as the steering works to keep itself centered as you are travelling. This side to side sway can sometimes cause stress on bike racks which is why not all are rated for it.
