Hi
Has anyone ever towed a 5 speed 1996 FORD Ranger?

If so, what type of 'tow bar' system have you used?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Jane

I own A 2010 Ford Ranger with the manual 5 speed tranny. Using a Blue Ox tow bar system. Just turn the ignition swithch one click, put tanny in neutral, and away you go. Been towing since brand new. so far no problem.
