For your 2023 Ford F-150 Tremor, I recommend the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit item # RM38VR. This kit has removable arms that are not only the easiest to connect a tow bar to but are completely removable. This will give your truck as close to a factory look as possible when removed.
Some other parts you will need to flat tow your F-150 are listed below along with any installation videos we may have. Feel free to email me back if you have any other questions or concerns.
Tow Bar and Safety Chains - Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar item # RM-520 and item # RM-643
Wiring Harness - For LED Lights - Roadmaster Smart Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Wiring Kit for Variable Voltage LED Tail Lights item # RM38FR
Incandescent Lights - Roadmaster Smart Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Wiring Kit for Variable Voltage Incandescent Tail Lights item # RM26FR
Supplemental Braking System - Blue Ox Patriot Radio Frequency, Portable Braking System item # BLU37TR
High Low Adapter - The tow bar needs to be within 3" of level. If you measure the height of the inside top of the hitch receiver tube on your RV, and the height difference is more than 3 inches above/below the base plate tab height, you'll need a high/low adapter. I have linked a FAQ article that explains all this in more detail along with our selection of adapters.

I have a 2023 F-150 STX (4x4) that I have flat-towed multiple time with no issue. I’m looking for a 6pin setup. I currently have a 4 pin quick connect that was super easy to install. I have a 7pin to 6pin curly chord connector from my rv to the toad. I currently have to use an adapter, because of the 4 pin quick connect that I installed. Do you have a bracket for a 6pin? I’d like to securely mount a 6pin receiver on the front of my truck.
