Re: Long distance towing with a car dolly

Tow dolly +----? Usually no brakes, Usually marginal straps, Usually missing a chain lock down of vehicle to dolly, Always a PITA to back up, and unless you use an additional wire harness to the vehicle, you have no brake lights 15-20 feet behind the dolly but do have a vehicle there--maybe!! A decent flat bed has MANY additional uses investment wise. A tow bar is ok but you still need either a wireing harness to connect to the vehicle or a set of magnetic trailer lights to stick on the back of the towed vehicle to be legal. Huck
