- You will not need a short roof adapter for your 2011 Ford Fusion. The short roof adapter is primarily required for small compact coupe vehicles such as a 2 door Honda Civic or Toyota Yaris. The SportRack Semi-Custom Roof Rack, part # SR1010, is all you will need to add a roof rack to your Fusion.

- The Erickson Big Bed Junior Load Extender # EM07605 that you referenced is actually used to help carry a kayak or something of the sort that is too long for a pickup bed or a roof rack. It doesn't have a receiver on the far end so you wouldn't be able to use it for a bike rack.
To carry a bike rack between your motorhome and towed vehicle you will need to use a dual hitch receiver like the Roadmaster # RM-077-4 that you referenced. This is the best option for carrying a bike rack for your...

- We really like Roadmaster products here as well. You'll need a tow bar, safety cables, a base plate kit, a wiring harness, the braking system you mentioned and possibly a high/low adapter. For a tow bar, you can't go wrong with the Roadmaster Falcon All Terrain, part # RM-522. The tow bar is self aligning and non-binding which means it's easy to connect and disconnect even on uneven pavement even if the car isn't perfectly lined up behind the motorhome. For base plates, I typically recommend...

- The bracket # 18136 was modified by our installer(as seen in the video below) to make a custom mounting bracket for the speaker on a 2020 Ford Fusion. This will require drilling of new holes in the bracket as well as an extra bend placed in the bracket to work on your 2019 Ford Fusion.

- For the reverse lights, you would just tap in right there close to the rear. 10 gauge wire would be fine to run up to the battery for your 12V power. 25 feet should do it.
That being said, before you start your installation, you may way to check the rear of the Expedition again. On 1997-2004 Ford full-size trucks and vans, the 4-Way equipped trucks did have the wiring run, you would just have to splice into it.

- I took a look at the owner's manual for a 2013 Ford Fusion and it states that a front-wheel drive Fusion can be towed using a tow dolly with the front wheels off the ground, but an all-wheel drive model cannot be flat towed or towed on a dolly (it would require its own trailer).

- We do have solutions for both of these vehicles that are going to be custom fit and won't require any drilling.
For your 2011 Ford Fusion I recommend using the Curt # C11390 and for your 2015 Honda Civic you'll want to use the Curt # C11391; Curt hitches generally have a much thicker powder coating on them, so they're going to stand up to the rigors of the road a little bit better and won't be as likely to get nicks in the coating that might lead to corrosion issues. These are both custom...

Since your micro camper has a 6-way trailer connector, it is likely that the trailer has electric brakes. To power your trailer's brakes, you will need a wiring harness, a brake controller, and a brake controller installation kit.
