Hi Charles,

To flat tow your 2023 Ford Maverick Hybrid, you can use the following parts:

- Demco Tabless Base Plate Kit w/Removable Arms part # DM77YV, the arms will remove when not towing to give the front of your Maverick a more seamless look.

- Demco Commander II Non-Binding Tow Bar for 2" hitches part # DM9511012 that is rated for 6,000lbs, has self-supporting arms so they won't fall on the ground when you're hooking it up, has integrated safety cables, and a built-in rise/drop and tilt to ensure the tow bar is level when you're towing. The arms are easily released once you get to your destination using a trigger on the arm, so that you won't have to fight to disengage the latch.

- Roadmaster 4-Diode Universal Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles - 7-way to 6-way Coiled Adapter Cord part # RM-15267 to connect your RV"s tail/brake/turn signals with the towed vehicle's.

- Blue Ox Patriot Portable Flat Tow Brake System part # BLU37TR plugs right into the 12V and can be easily removed when you're wanting to drive your tow vehicle.

- Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit for Towed Vehicles part # RM-156-25 to trickle charge your battery with 12V power from your RV while driving to keep the battery from dying. I've included a wiring diagram for the 6-way socket of your vehicle as well for reference.

*Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit for Motorhomes part # RM-156-75 is only needed if your RV does NOT have 12V power present on the socket. *

What adventures are you planning first with the Maverick behind your Winnebago?

The setup has worked well. I installed the parts myself and towed 2000 miles. That was two years ago- I traveled cross country without the maverick and have yet to be back home w the RV. It did tow well. For braking I used the Demco stay in play, which I prefer. There is another Florida outfit that has done manny of these too. I plan to ship the maverick west in July so I can tow August thru October to Canada

@Martin Sounds like you've been traveling all over! I'm glad your flat tow set up has performed well for you over all those miles. Where in Canada are you adventuring to?
