The Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM39FR you're looking at from your 2022 Escape, will not fit your 2023 Ford Escape.

At this time there is no base plates that are going to work with your 2023 Ford Escape. According to the owner's manual the only model that can be flat towed is the Full Hybrid Electric Vehicle (FHEV)/Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV), so unless you have either of those models you wouldn't be able to flat tow it anyways.
