Dolly recommendations please...
Okay I think introductions are in order--we just pulled the trigger on a American Coach Revolution 42T. We will take delivery in about a month or so (getting modifications made).
Turns out I made a minor mistake in my research. I was under the impression I could tow my 2008 Ford Escape FWD with all wheels down. It turns out I am clearly wrong.
I am completely out of my element with towing dollies. I have towed travel trailers (Nash 32D) and fifth wheels (Cedar Creek 362BTS), but never another car.
I have a ton of questions and I am about to start doing my research but I was hoping the board could point me in a general direction.
I am thinking I am needing brakes on the dolly right? Lights?
I am also thinking I should probably put a hitch on the escape so I can tow the dolly when it is not attached to the motorcoach, right? I am making the assumption it will become a pain to move otherwise...
I am thinking of trading out the Ford Escape for a Ford Edge in the next year to two years--so again, I assume I should keep that in mind when I purchase this set up correct, or is there a set up that would work for both.
So the bottom line question is what dolly would you recommend for my set up? I have a Revolution 42T and 08 Ford Escape FWD with the idea of upgrading in a year or two to a Ford Edge.
