Expert Reply:

As long as your 2002 Ford F-150 isn't a Lightning or Harley Davidson edition you'll be able to use the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BX2146. If you haven't picked out the rest of your flat towing components then I have the following recommendations:

Tow Bar: etrailer XHD Non-Binding Tow Bar for Blue Ox Base Plates # e67ZR. This tow bar comes with safety cables bracketed to the arms so you won't have to worry about them dragging on the ground and an adjustable head so that you can help keep the tow bar level between the motorhome and F-150.

Tow Bar Wiring Kit: Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267. These diodes will splice into your tail light wiring to display the motorhome's traffic signals through the tail lights of the F-150.

Braking System: If your motorhome has air brakes you'll want the Demco Air Force One # SM99243 and for hydraulic brakes the Demco SBS Stay-IN-Play DUO # SM99251.
