126crosby,
We are considering an F-150, 4x4 Auto for flat towing in the future. I'm not a fan of ANY gizmos that have to be added or, alter the drive characteristics of any vehicle just so it can be towed. There are many, many vehicles that come right from the factory, that are flat towable by simply following a guided set of instructions prior to driving away.
For years, we've towed (7) different Jeeps and all without issues and, all without special gizmos or pumps or anything. We now tow a Honda CRV, also without specialization in setup. So, while we're on the lookout for a late model F-150, I will have to do whatever research needed to find out what's involved in prep for towing on those.
I know there's folks out there that tow F-150s so, just need to hear what they do and what was needed to get them towable, if anything.
