Maybe I want to keep towing a car on a tow dolly....That is insane. I am still thinking about a Jeep Wrangler so I can do without the dolly...haven't had or heard of this happening with a dolly.
anyone else??
It seems the engineers don't think about vehicles as toads. For instance, the Equinox 4cyl have electronic steering (less expensive) while the 6cyl has hydraulic. This simple difference means the 4cyl develops the wobble while the 6cyl does not. Has to do with the lack of pressure on the steering box. (at least that's the easiest way to describe it). Using the bungee and now pulling a different fuse allows the electronics to stay engaged while towing. Jeep used a pigtail work around. Still, even with these changes, I would never tow on a dolly for a few reasons. One convenience. I can hook/unhook in less than a minute with no tie downs etc.. and I don't have to find a spot to stash the dolly once I arrive. Then again, with a dolly it doesn't matter too much what kind of car you tow.....Dennis
