Having read through this thread,I think I understand most of the advantages and disadvantages to each system. I'm considering a tow dolly but Im concerned about moving it by hand on uneven surfaces. Any advice from folks using a tow dolly would be appreciated. One post refers to 400lbs with 50 lb hitch weight. That sounds like a problem to wheel around? I know I could add a hitch to the toad, but hitch/unhitch would get to be a real session.
i don't see how adding a hitch (aka base plates) to the toad is a "real session" -
When driving the toad, while traveling - I don't even bother removing the tow bar extensions.
The items only weigh a few lbs & it literally take no more than 60 seconds to connect or disconnect the toad to the tow bar.
To remove the base plate / tow bar extensions its a matter of pulling a pin & then removing the device....3-5 lbs at most.
The base plate / tow bar extensions insert into a 1 inch receiver (there are different styles but almost all work the same) & are easily stored (if you wish) when not in use.
