When we replaced our 2003 Ford Sport Trac a few years ago, the hunt was on. The ST served us well, but she had 167,000 miles on her and another 100,000 towed and our mechanic told us the timing chains were starting to rattle, so we retired the old gal in 2016. We opted for a 2014 Ford Flex. It's all wheel drive but is flat towable. We needed room for a spare tire for the Phaeton. . . needed 39 inches in the back end. It was about the only car that qualified and the trucks are all being built so big and heavy. The Flex has third row seating so when we arrive at the grandkids, we can haul everyone.
We've towed the Flex 10,000 miles a year behind the Phaeton since then and nary a problem. Tows well, drive like a dream and while I have heard them called "toasters on wheels" I nicked named ours the Oster Toaster.
