Does anyone have any pros or cons about this vehicle for flat towing? zigzagrv • View posts Nazareth, PA Senior Member Joined: 08/12/2004 View Profile Good Sam RV Club Member Offline Posted: 11/17/20 07:09am Link  |  Quote  |  Print  |  Notify Moderator Will be watching this thread as I am considering the Ford Edge in the 2011 to 2014 range. According to the Motorhome Mag. Dinghy towing guide they are OK to tow 4-down as long as you run the engine for 5 minutes or so every 6 hours. HERE'S the link to the guide.

We have towed ours, 4 - down, over 80,000 miles all over the country trouble free. Follow the directions in the owners manual when towing.

We just retired it with about 165K miles. Ours required towing in aux key position & was an energy pig so I had a charge line. I later learned from another forum member how to tow it with key in off position and that made towing even better. Overall very high marks.
