The thing is, that combo no longer exists, which makes sense because FWD vehicles typically can’t tow that fairly hefty amount. Recent tests conducted by the automaker ultimately determined the compact truck wouldn’t meet performance and engineering goals with FWD and the towing pack, so it was removed as an option only last month.
Fortunately, Ford is doing the right thing by offering these people three choices: remove the tow package, cancel their order without penalty, or add AWD for free. In our opinion, the choice is obvious. All-wheel drive is normally a $2,200 option. Who wouldn’t want to get it for free?
