I have the ACME tow dolly. It works fine as I have used it extensively since I purchased it. As you know on this forum you get a lot of opinions. Mine has the surge brakes and I pull a Toyota highlander. The tires are rated for highway speed and run around 90 lbs of pressure.
I don't remember who posted this but it is the best explanation of how it works I have seen for those who do not have one:
If you glued your front wheels to the ground, left your steering unlocked and could slide your rear wheels left and right that is called inverted steering. I have yet seen my dolly tires slide and the dolly tires do not show any signs of wear.
I actually hooked my dolly to my pickup, put the highlander on the dolly and had one person sit in the car and another one observe from the outside. I have never seen a problem with it. By the way this was done on my farm not the open highway.
That is what I have observed so far.
