Have you looked under the rear bumper? seems to me Rangers have been equipped with a flat 4 connector for towing for the last ~10 years standard.

You should have a connector already there, but if not SKIP the dealership and go to your local O'reilly's, AutoZone, Advance and get a 4 flat wiring kit.

^^^ What he said.

Hopkins Towing Solutions makes adapters that plug into your factory wiring harness and tap into the appropriate leads. I have one on my '93 - they work great. Available at Northern, Auto Zone and other places.

But, as you have a 2007, you probably already have trailer wiring from the factory.
