The reason why I thought I understood everything I needed to know was because over the last 5 or 6 years while researching this information, I NEVER came across anyone who said the Escape wouldn't work. I've seen LOTS of pictures of Escapes towing the size trailer I want, the Ford website said it could tow 3500 pounds, a lot of the RV's I saw said they could be towed by Escapes, and my friend who has towed trailers for about 4 years told me I'd have no problem either. I simply had no reason to doubt any of this.
Then I have to ask why did you come here to ask if you could if no one ever told you that you cant?
"Now i've run into a problem...people are telling me my Escape shouldn't tow that much, it's not safe. I heard horror stories about Escapes not being able to handle it. They recommend I stick to 2000 pounds or less" (OP Quote)
In your first ever post you were saying people were telling you no and then you asked us for the first time and WE, for the most part, said no.
I am really confused now.:h
