I am purchasing a 24/25 Lincoln Nautilus to flat tow behind my coach. What would you recommend for tow bar, brakes and lights?

Expert Reply:

Hi Barry; the only base plate kit for the 2024/25 Nautilus is the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BLU35UR which is designed to fit the hybrid model. According to the owner's manual, you cannot flat tow your Nautilus unless it is the hybrid. If you have the regular gas engine model the only option is to use a trailer. Assuming you have the hybrid I recommend the following for a complete setup:

-Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BLU35UR

-Blue Ox Avail Non-Binding Tow Bar # BX7420 (includes safety cables)

-Roadmaster Universal Tail Light Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles - 10" LED Strips # RM35MR

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

-Demco Stay-IN-Play Duo Flat Tow Brake System for RVs w/ Hydraulic Brakes # SM99251

More than likely you will also need a high-low adapter to keep your setup level. I attached a help article below which explains how to choose the correct adapter. I also included a link to all of our available high-low adapters for your reference.
