I have a tow hitch. I believe the manual says that for Ys with hitch, you can't use the Tow Eye in the rear bumper, but must use the tow hitch instead. It seems like it would be hard to hook a tow truck winch hook into that, especially without scratching-up the bumper. (?)
People with rear hitch, do you have a plan for what you'd do if you needed a rearwards tow (e.g.: you parked nose-in due to angle parking, pointed downhill, and need to be pulled backwards to get onto a flatbed towtruck) ? I was wondering if it would be worth it to carry something like the Harbor Freight "D Shackle Receiver Hitch" in the frunk, as a "rear tow eye".
Or just refuse to angle-park and always park nose-out. Or pretend it's a Mach-E (which has no approved rear tow points).
