When I had my Jeep Rubicon Unlimited a couple years ago, I towed it on an open Featherlite car trailer that had a nice protective air dam on front. I always figured it was better to put the wear and tear on that $4,000 car trailer than on a $40,000 Jeep.
Make it $3000 trailer and $70,000 car in my case.
Than compare $300 tire set on trailer v/s $900 on the car and fact that cars have alignment set for driving, so when it towing the tire wear is accelerated.
I will not even compare bulletproof trailer brakes v/s "who knows if it works?" BrakeBuddy
I never got that far, but for years owning motorhome I already made my mind that if I want Mercedes behind RV - it will go into enclosed trailer.
Can't beat the value of trailer, but backside is finding parking spot for it at campgrounds.
Other issue is that finding small car hauler, like Uhaul has is very hard and most of those easy available are wide-bodies.
But finding a shop who can modify or even build custom trailer is not that hard.
