Tow dolly instructions
Going to buy a tow dolly to tow a 2002 Ford Escape with front wheel drive and automatic. My question is do you leave the car in park with steering wheel locked or what?

Car in PARK - YES, absolutely.
Steering wheel locked - depends. If the dolly has a rotating pan (common) or wheels that turn during vehicle turns (rarer), then lock the steering wheel. A dolly with neither of those (rare, cheap dollies) the steering wheel needs to be unlocked. But there should be only 1 point where rotation occurs on the dolly during turns.
