Fords way of trying to keep it prestige I think

I've read all sorts, like the clutch can't handle it, the driveshafts will snap, the exhaust is in the way etc - all a load of bullshit if I'm honest

Standard tow bar will fit (or you can get a fancy detachable aftermarket one so you don't need to cut into the bumper) and it will tow just fine, not done it personally but I know people who have.
