Hello all. first post. i have a question. i'm moving to san diego from kansas soon, and i was curious about the towing capabilities of the explorer. i'm not really familiar with my truck, not only because it's relatively new (to me), but because i'm not really a truck guy. so please pardon any dumb questions.
my truck does not have a towing package. i see a little plug in the bumper where a tow ball could possibly be installed. my question is, would simply using the bumper to tow a uhaul approximately 2000 miles be safe, or would it rip my bumper off?
if not, what would i need to take into consideration to install a more sturdy tow assembly? is this something i could do myself, or something i should take to a shop to have done?
thanks
