Base Plate and Tow Bar Recommendations for a 2018 Ford Focus Hatchback
Question:
Hi. What base kit and tow bar do you recommend for a 2018 Focus hatchback? I plan on using my portable brake system along with a lighting kit I already have so I just need the base and the bar.

I really like the following etrailer kit for your 2018 Ford Focus Hatchback:
- etrailer Invisible Base Plate Kit # e98960
- etrailer SD Non-Binding Tow Bar # e34ZR
This system has removeable tabs for a clean look when you aren't towing, and then the tow bar is rated for 6K, comes with same-rated safety cables, and has adjustments in the head to minimize the need for a high-low adapter. I'm attaching a review video of the tow bar for you to check out!
