If you're asking if your Forester Class C 3011 is capable of flat towing a vehicle the answer is more than likely yes. Without knowing the year it is difficult to find the towing capacity but this information should be in your owner's manual. As long as you do not exceed the towing capacity of your Forester you will be fine.
If you're referring to your 2014 Ford F-150 it will depend on the model. According to the owner's manual, if you have a 2WD you cannot flat tow or dolly tow the truck. If you have a 4WD then you will be able to flat tow your F-150. I also recommend verifying this information using your 2014 F-150 owner's manual. In order to flat tow your F-150 you will need the following:
-Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms for 2014 Ford F-150 # RM-524431-5 or # 495-3A
-Roadmaster Nighthawk All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar w/ LED Lights # RM-676
-Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit for Towed Vehicles # RM-156-25
-Roadmaster Universal Hy-Power Diode Wiring Kit # RM-154
-Brake Buddy Select 3 Portable Supplemental Braking System - Proportional # HM39524
The base plate will depend on your exact model. I have included a link to the base plates. If you input the style in the drop down box it will let you know which is the correct fit. It is also likely you will need a high low adapter. See the attached article on how to measure. I have also attached some installation videos, along with a link to all of our high low adapter for your reference.
