This should be interesting. A few years ago, GM sold the Chevy Cruz with clear instructions in the owner's manual for flat towing. People bought the cars because they wanted to tow them behind their motorhomes.
Then, GM changed their mind and sent out letters notifying owners that the car could not, in fact, be flat towed and they would not honor warranty on cars that had been flat towed.
A mass uprising ensued and GM ending buying cars back at original retail price..
Looks to me like Ford is doing the same thing, only they aren't notifying owners. Therefore they avoid the mass uprising that GM experienced.
