I'll be happy to set you up for success. I have listed everything you will need to flat tow a 2018 Ford Fusion Energi below along with any installation videos we may have:

Tow Bar and Safety Chains - Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar item # RM-520 and item # RM-643

Base Plate Kit - Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms item # RM-524458-5

Wiring Harness - Roadmaster 7-Way to 6-Wire Hybrid Cord item # RM-152-1676-7. This complete kit includes everything you need to connect your RV's tail, brake, and turn signal lights to your towed car. Unless you have LED lights then you'll need the Roadmaster Smart Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Wiring Kit for Variable Voltage LED Tail Lights item # RM38FR instead.

Battery Charge Line - Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit for Towed Vehicles item # RM-156-25

Supplemental Braking System - SMI Stay-IN-Play DUO Supplemental Braking System item # SM99251 or item # SM99243 if your motorhome has air brakes and the Roadmaster Brake-Lite Relay Kit item # RM-88400 which prevents your Fusion's brake signal from overriding the turn signal from the RV when applying the brakes during a turn.

High Low Adapter - The tow bar needs to be within 3" of level. If you measure the height of the inside top of the hitch receiver tube on your RV, and the height difference is more than 3 inches above/below the base plate tab height, you'll need a high/low adapter. I have linked a FAQ article that explains all this in more detail along with our selection of adapters.
