Hi Terry,

The online manual for a 2018 Ford Escape doesn't list that the vehicle can be dolly towed, but states that both front-wheel-drive and 4-wheel-drive models can not be flat towed with all four wheels on the ground. If you have a front wheel drive model you might be able to use a tow dolly like the Roadmaster Tow Dolly with Electric Brakes # RM-2050-1 you were looking at, but I'd contact Ford first and double check with your specific model that they approve of it to avoid damaging your vehicle or voiding any warranties you might have.
