There will be a lot of opinions on what is best. What is best for one, will not be the best toad for another.

We tow a Ford Explorer. Easy to prepare, just have the engine running, put in neutral, turn key to 1st off position with foot on brake, a LED light flashes 3 times mounted under the dash then comes on steady. When it stays on steady then it is ready to tow.

I installed the Blue Ox light kit in the tail light housing so that no diodes or power is sent into the Explorer main wiring as recommended by our Ford dealer and Remco. Too many sensors in the Explorer that could be damaged according to Ford from feedback. Motorhome powers the extra lights that were installed with the Blue Ox kit.

But I believe the best tow bars are made by Blue Ox due to their great support at rallies. Blue Ox goes to many rallies, including the Gulf Streamers Back Home rally held yearly. Blue Ox inspects the tow bars on your coach and replaces any worn components, lubricates what is needed all for NO additional charge. Now that is service after the sale, they stand behind their products 100%. They will do this without you having to ask and many times if no one is even at the coach. They will leave a report of what they did on your door so that you know it was done and what they did.
