Question:
Hi, Does the 2013 Ford Explorer Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver Class III - 2inch come with a plug? If not do you sell it? Thanks,

We do carry trailer wiring harnesses that do fit your 2013 Ford Explorer but they do not come with the Curt Hitch part # C13386 that you referenced. This hitch is a confirmed fit for your vehicle by the way.
For a 4-way harness you would want the part # C56172 or for a 7-way you would want the part # 118272. I attached install videos for these as well.
If you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.
If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
