Question:
I have a 2002 Honda CRV that I occasionally would like to flat tow behind my F150 when I occasionally need to take one or the other for service. Im not talking about RVing and pulling behind a motorhome on a trip. Im just talking about short trips 10,20,30 miles, so I can leave one vehicle for service and have the other to drive home. Can i attach a tow bar like the BX4330 or BX7322 directly to the front, are they tie down or tow, loops for these short trips? Thanks for your reply

Expert Reply:
Yes, you can flat tow your 2002 Honda CR-V behind your F-150 using either the Blue Ox Acclaim Non-Binding Tow Bar # BX4330 or the Blue Ox Adventurer Adjustable Tow Bar # BX7322. You will need the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BX2232 to give yourself the attachment points needed for connecting the tow bars.
You will want to also check your local laws to verify if you are going to need a Braking System # HM39494 due to the weight of your CR-V. This would also help to reduce wear and tear on your F-150 brakes.
Finally you will need some Safety Cables # BX88196 and Lights # C6304 to remain legal.
