Hey Dwayne,

For your 2019 Escape I recommend the etrailer hitch # e98866. This is a no drill application so the installation is easy and offers a 3500lb towing capacity with a 350lb tongue weight capacity. My favorite thing about this hitch is the matte black finish, it looks really clean on your vehicle once it is installed.

For the wiring I recommend the Curt harness # C95FR. This is a super simple plug and play installation and gets you the trailer plug in the rear to tow what you need. What are you looking to tow with the Escape?
