To flat tow your 2019 Ford Fusion Energi behind your 2020 Coachmen Leprechaun 319MB you'll need a tow bar, base plate, tow bar wiring kit, braking system, and safety cables. I have the following recommendations for you listed below:
Tow Bar: Roadmaster Falcon All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bars # RM-522. This tow bar features a non-binding design and large hookup radius to make connecting and disconnecting from your base plates on any terrain a breeze. This tow bar also easily folds up to store on your RV.
Base Plate: Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # RM-524458-5. These direct-connect base plates quickly and easily connect and disconnect from your tow bar. The arms are removable to provide clean look when not in use.
Tow Bar Wiring Kit: Roadmaster 4-Diode Universal Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles - 7-Way to 6-Wire Hybrid Cord # RM-152-1676-7. This complete kit includes everything you need to connect your RV's tail, brake, and turn signal lights to your towed car.
If you have an SEL model then you'll need the Roadmaster Smart Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Wiring Kit for Variable Voltage LED Tail Lights # RM38FR.
Braking System: Brake Buddy Select 3 Portable Supplemental Braking System - Proportional # HM39524. This system offers intense, emergency braking or steady, smooth braking in a single portable system. Easily switch between proportional or full braking using the remote all from the cab of your motorhome.
Safety Cables: RoadMaster 68" Single Hook, Coiled Safety Cables - 6,000lbs # RM-643. The coiled design of these cables will help prevent them from dragging on the ground and being damaged.
You may also require a high/low adapter to keep your tow bar level. This will require some measuring on your part. I've attached our help guide article that will walk you through this process.
