If you prefer a toad do you prefer4 down or a dolly? I realize a lot of you like Jeeps because of their off road and back country capabilities but I am looking at it from a towing and handling stand point. I look forward to you further input.
If you already have a toad that can be towed 4 down, then it's a no-brainer. If you need to buy a vehicle that can be towed, and your current vehicle is front wheel drive, then you can make the decision dolly vs. buy something. All kinds or variables there; how old is your car? can you afford something than can be towed? etc. Also, you have to store the dolly at the campground somewhere.
If your current car is rear wheel drive, you can get a Remco driveshaft disconnect and tow that. This would be cheaper and more convenient than towing it on a trailer.
We chose not to tow on our first big trip and decided that we would tow for the next trip. I did need to buy a car anyway.
