Roadmaster Parts For Flat Towing 2023 Ford Edge ST
Question:
Can a Ford EDGE ST 2023 be flat towed behind my motorhome and maintain its new car warranty? Does Roadmaster have the hookup parts for it?

Helpful Expert Reply:
Yes, per the owner's manual I looked up, so long as you have the 2.7L engine you can flat tow your 2023 Ford Edge ST. The warranty will not be affected, and Roadmaster does indeed have the parts for your vehicle. To make it easy for you to order, I'll go ahead and list them all out:
- Base Plate Kit: Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-524460-5
- Tow Bar: Roadmaster Falcon All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar # RM-522
- Roadmaster Safety Cables # RM-645
- Wiring Kit: Roadmaster Universal Wiring Kit with Smart Diodes # RO44FR
- Roadmaster Battery Disconnect # RM-766
- Roadmaster Stop Light Switch Kit # RM-751475
- Supplemental Braking System: Roadmaster InvisiBrake Supplemental Braking System # RM-8700
The Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plates are great because they have removable tabs which means your Edge is going to maintain its clean aesthetic when you aren't flat towing it. The Falcon tow bar is great because its extra long 53-1/2" reach allows your Edge to track behind your motorhome better than bars with shorter arms.
The smart diode wiring kit is needed to ensure proper voltage gets to your lights, the battery disconnect allows you to disconnect your Edge's battery with the flip of a switch, and the stop light switch kit allows the braking system to get the proper signal. The InvisiBrake is a one-time setup that allows you to set the braking power to whatever you like so you get the best braking for your specific journey.
Finally, to protect your Edge from rocks and other debris hitting it while you are flat towing, I highly recommend a rock guard, the Roadmaster Tow Defender Protective Screening # RM-4750.
