The 2020 Ford Explorer with the 3.5L standard or Ecoboost engine and four wheel drive is suitable for flat towing, provided you switch the transfer case and transmission to neutral. Avoid trying to flat tow front wheel drive models, as they lack the ability to disconnect from the road like the four wheel drive model, potentially resulting in transmission damage during towing behind a truck or RV. It is typically recommended to tow vehicles on a trailer instead of flat towing, as it reduces wear and tear on both the car and the tires.
