Is 4x4 F150 Hybrid towable 4 down

Just curious if the new F150 4x4 is towable 4 down? Looks like its 7.2 KW inverter power center was a life saver for some down in TX last week.
  • Grit Dog you are right if you look at it like that. But if you wanted a 4x4 pickup to tow and could get one that was a Swiss Army knife of electric toy possibilities away from the rig that 7KW power center looks mighty handy. It could silently run a remote deer camp for hours off the hybrid battery pac. Or an ice fishing hut. Or a construction site as Ford shows in its TV ad.

    That's an awful heavy gen set to tow around in case the power goes out...
    If I was packing 3 tons with me to have a generator it would be a 100kW version! lol
  • I can't speak specifically about the Ford F150 hybrid but in the past all Ford hybrids have been towable. I've owned 4 of them: 2008 Mercury Mariner, 2012 Ford Fusion, 2014 Lincoln MKZ and currently own a 2019 Ford Fusion Energi (PHEV), all of which were and are towable - - and I towed each and every one of them behind my motorhome.
  • Thanks for the links. Both links were pretty informative.

    On page 14 Ford says the 4X4 is flat towable, but does not specifically mention the Hybrid. It may be but one would want to check to be sure.
