I have a Badlands model with factory tow and I see the ratings are 220lbs tongue and 2200lbs trailer weight.
The Curt model for the BS (CMF13474) is rated at 525lbs tongue and 3500lbs trailer weight.
Curious on why they are so far apart on the ratings and if the factory hitch is underrated or if it's purely the design. I understand that the tow rating from Ford was reduced (compared to the Escape) due to the suspension.
Hitch design or reserved ratings?
