Is your Escape electric?  (Start in accessory mode?)  4WD?

I was just looking in the manual for my 2017 Escape and it says
that they don't recommend towing a 4WD Escape unless all 4 wheels
are off the ground (on a trailer). Mine is just Front Wheel Drive
so I'm sure it could be towed with the front wheels off the road.
