I haven't seen anywhere that there's a solution to the front hitch for gen 6. If anyone knows anything different, please check in. Thank you!

Best solution for me was a swing-away hitch on the rear. At least it allows me to access the bed contents without removing the cooler/rod rack.

You are right, for some reason the '24 isn't flat towable.
But in all cases, only 4x4s are flat towable because it's the transfer case that's being put into neutral.
Manual says:

Recreationally Towing Your Vehicle - 4x2

You cannot recreational tow your vehicle with all wheels on the ground because vehicle or transmission damage could occur. You must recreational tow your vehicle with all four wheels off the ground, such as when using a car-hauling trailer. Otherwise, you cannot recreational tow your vehicle.

I'm still trying to find some solution for the front hitch because I want to get a winch but I'm going to have to use it on the front and back.
