Hey All. I am looking at buying a 2016 Ford Edge, but I have a 2500lb boat/trailer. I live in Oklahoma - roads are mostly flat. The Edge I am looking at does not have a trailer package, but I do see that I can have a viable hitch installed. Would this be feasible without all of the fancy factory tow package, do you think? I feel like it would work just fine. But, would like to hear your input. I'm old school and hauled trailers with old trucks, no ABS, no traction control, no trailer assists, drum brakes... I don't feel I would have an issue controlling the trailer. I am mostly wondering about the chassis and the tongue weight if it would have a problem.
Thanks.
