I completely understand your confusion Jim. As someone who has worked with all the different manufacturers over the years here are the best components which I recommend for you to use. First you will need the Roadmaster Base Plate # RM-524459-5 for your 2023 Ford Ranger. This will connect to your motorhome with the Roadmaster Nighthawk All-Terrain Tow Bar # RM-676. Do understand you may need one of the High/Low adapters from the list below as the tow bars need to be within 3" of level.

4" Rise/Drop # RM-048-4
6" Rise/Drop # RM-048-6
8" Rise/Drop # RM-048-8
10-1/4" Rise/Drop # RM-048-10

The Roadmaster Accessory Kit # RM-9284-2 will provide the wiring for your tail lights to function off the RV. It also has locks, lube, a storage bag and cover to protect the bars. Then you will want the Charge Line # RM-156-25 to maintain the vehicle battery from being drained from the supplemental braking system.

For a braking system the Demco Stay-IN-Play Duo # DM86VR for motorhomes with hydraulic brakes or the Air Force One # DM26VR for motorhomes with air brakes are the best options available.

I understand this likely seems like a lot of information so please feel free to let me know if you have any specific questions about any of the parts I recommended or have more specific questions pertaining to installation on your Ranger or motorhome.
