When you need a workhorse, Mission Valley Ford Trucks has you covered. Ford trucks are consistently ranked among the best for towing and carrying heavy payloads. Ford’s advanced towing technology augments the strong design and quality built into every Ford truck. Between a long commitment to building the toughest trucks on the market and forward-thinking investments in technology, Ford makes towing even the heaviest loads as painless as possible.

Smart Hitch and Onboard Scales

The available Smart Hitch and Onboard Scales let you make sure you aren’t carrying more than your truck’s capacity. The information sent to your cabin’s touchscreen display makes it simple to distribute the weight evenly and ensure you’re carrying your load safely. LED visual display lights in the taillights help guide you as you are working so you can get your load distributed evenly the first time.

Pro Trailer Hitch and Backup Assist

With Pro Trailer Hitch Assist, you can easily line up your hitch and trailer without needing a second set of eyes. Beyond a typical hitch camera, Hitch Assist will guide you into position when you press and hold the button. It guides your truck automatically, and brakes when you reach the correct position, so you can securely hook up your trailer without having to park and check your hitch position repeatedly.

Pro Trailer Backup Assist lets you turn a knob on your console to direct your trailer, and your truck will automatically adjust its position to put your trailer into position. No more stress when you need to back into a tight spot with a large trailer.

Smart Driver Assistance Tools

When you’re pulling a trailer, smart sensors like the Blind Spot Information System (BlIS) take your trailer into account when warning you that someone has come into your blind spot or to the side of your trailer where you may not be able to see them.

Trailer Navigation tells your onboard navigation system to take your trailer’s height, width, and length into account to avoid low overpasses or tight corners along your route. You’ll never have to perform an awkward turnaround on a tight backroad again.

Let Your Ford Dealer Help

Towing is an intensive process that utilizes systems at every level of the truck. Your dealer has access to all the latest service bulletins and factory parts that are guaranteed to fit precisely and work together as they were designed to. For the most efficient and powerful towing system, your best bet is to work with your dealer to get the system you want installed properly on your Ford truck.
