Expert Answers about Mercury Milan

• Can a 2008 Mercury Milan With Class I Hitch Tow a 16 Foot Tracker Boat
• It sounds like you have a Class I hitch like the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11329 on your 2008 Mercury Milan. A Class I hitch like this will have a maximum gross trailer weight of 2,000 lbs and tongue weight of 200 lbs. You will also need to know the towing capacity of your vehicle and will be limited by whichever is lower. Assuming the weight of your boat and boat trailer do not exceed the capacity of your vehicle or hitch, you will be able to tow it.

• How Does the Trailer Wiring Harness # HM11140395 Install on a 2010 Mercury Milan Premier
• Installation of the trailer wiring harness # HM11140395 is fairly straight forward. The main connections from the harness connect in line with the tail light wiring on the vehicle. The converter will be grounded to a bare metal surface or existing ground location. The only real time-consuming part is routing the power wire to the vehicle battery. If your battery happens to be in the trunk or even under the backseat, this is not very difficult. Most cars and trucks have the battery under...

• Troubleshooting Trailer Wiring Harness That Instantly Blows Fuse When Connecting to Battery
• The Hopkins Plug-In Simple Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # HM11140395 having a spark as well as blowing a fuse is a sure sign that the ground is not connected properly or the power wire at some point is touching a metal ground. I recommend tracing that power wire to ensure there is no insulation missing where it could be touching metal. You can see with our installation of this wire we used wire loom # 7509-10 in some areas to assist with areas that have sharp...

• Why Cant I Put Tow Vehicle in Reverse While Connected to RV with Roadmaster Invisibrake Installed
• First of all you're correct, that isn't the normal way to connect a tow vehicle to a motorhome and I don't recommend it since that isn't how the tow bar or base plates are designed to be used. Instead you should connect them and then drive the motorhome forward making an S curve, when possible, to lock the tow bar's arms. But I think you already know this. I looked up your order and you're using the Roadmaster Invisibrake, part # RM-8700, and the Roadmaster Brake-Lite Relay, part # RM-88400....

• Fit of Kuat NV and Recommended Hitch for 2010 Mercury Milan
• For your 2010 Milan, I would recommend the Draw-Tite Class I hitch, part # 24865. The Draw-Tite hitch warranty does not require that a stabilizing strap be used, unlike the Curt hitch. When we installed the same hitch on a 2010 Ford Fusion, we found that when installed, the hitch pin hole to end of rear bumper clearance was 6 inches. When installed, the Kuat NV will have 10-1/2 inches between the hitch pin hole in its shank and 7-7/8 inches between the hitch pin hole and the closest portion...

• Trunk Mount Bike Rack Recommendations for a 2011 Mercury Milan with Aftermarket Spoiler
• You will most likely not have any fit issues with the Expedition # HRF6-2 fitting over the spoiler on your 2011 Mercury Milan. If you want to be absolutely sure a rack will clear the spoiler go with the Hollywood Racks Over-the-Top rack, # HRF2. This rack has an extra arm at the top that places the top straps up and over the spoiler so there is no interference. If you will be carrying any bikes that do not have a top frame bar that goes straight across (like a typical men's bike would)...

• Will the Blue Ox Acclaim Tow Bar Be Able To Fold Up On All Vehicles
• There are certain Blue Ox Base Plate Kits which don't allow the Blue Ox Acclaim Tow Bar part # BX4330 to be folded up and stored on the vehicle. There isn't an adapter that would allow for this so if storage is a concern a motorhome mounted tow bar like the Blue Ox Alpha 2 Tow Bar part # BX7380 is what I recommend.
