2 wheel dolly or flat tow?
I'm thinking 2 wheel dolly is the way to go. But as a newb who doesn't even have an RV yet, thought I'd check and see if I needed a slap upside the head. Thinking of towing a Honda CRV behind a cl...

I travel a LOT, over the course of a year, probably more than once a month, and Toronto to Florida probably 4 times a year. My average trip is 7 to 10 days.
I’d NEVER drag a car behind.
On a recent trip to Florida for an air show, a buddy who always brings a toad 4 down came along for a ‘boys trip’. He was VERY surprised that I not only wasn’t taking a toad, I flat out refused his offer of his.
When we got there and a nice young man arrived a few hours later with a shiny new Mercedes SUV rental car he got pensive.
When he found out that that rental, delivered to us, and ours to use for 3 days was going to cost $135 ($$45/day) and that was likely considerably LESS than the added cost of gas to drag a toad 3,000 miles round trip he was dumb-founded.
On many trips I never even get a car, when I can’t get a ride but need one, Uber, Lyft or a taxi is just a couple of dollars.
Uber Lyft and rental cars are an option when you city camp. And for the short duration trips you do. 7-10 days FL to Toronto means you’re piloting the RV most of the time anyway.
Just like most other claims on rvnet, it’s fun to see how one person’s unique to them experience is touted as THE way to do it.
I clearly said I was the odd man out, I did not say everyone must do it my way.
You’re math is flawed too, I get from Toronto to Florida generally in 1.5 days, 15 hours the first day, 7 the second. 3 days out of 7 is less than half, out of 10 it’s less than a third. Certainly a lot less than “most of the time”.
