yes. I have that combo.

Only people who can drive a stick are allowed to tow.

It's not federal law yet, so don't bother looking it up. But it's 50% true 100% of the time.

I ordered the base manual and it wasn't offered so I was wondering if it was because of the manual transmission.
What did you order to get the package?

Anything besides the base for some reason. You can install a hitch yourself in about 30 min.

It's probably not available on all trims.

I have tow with my 4 door manual Badlands

I know but I won't get 3500lb it will only be 2500lb

Base is the one trim you can't get factory tow package on. Trans and engine don't matter, still can't get it.

All other trims it should be available on. Ford screwed the Base model peeps on that one.

Like others said, you can go aftermarket.

I liked the base because it was more like the original bronco. Low to the ground.
I'm 70yo and that is alot easier to get it.

Does the trailer package have extra cooling for the engine oil, transmission oil, bigger alternator or a larger after cooler for the turbo?

Or stiffer springs for stability and extra tongue weight?

It comes with a hitch, 7 pin electrical wired and nothing else.

The electrical seems to be the biggest pain in the ass for adding a hitch after market.

That doesn't make sense to me that a 7 pin electrical plug and a hitch increases the tow capacity for 2500lb to 3500lb.
