2019 Explorer towing FAQ
What is the maximum towing capacity of a 2019 Ford Explorer in Canada?
The largest towing figure represented in TowGauge's mapped 2019 Explorer configurations is 5,000 lb. Exact vehicles can have lower ratings.
Does every 2019 Explorer tow 5,000 lb?
No. TowGauge applies the selected manufacturer-backed configuration rather than the headline maximum.
Why might TowGauge still ask for payload?
Payload is vehicle-specific. Passengers, cargo and trailer tongue weight use carrying capacity, so TowGauge leaves that check unresolved until a vehicle-specific value is available.
