We have a 32' Class C. we have done it both ways. We had a tow dolly for about a year. We used it twice. Not because it was a dolly, just because that's all we really needed as far as towing a car. My car got totaled in May. I opted to replace the car that can't be towed on a dolly or flat on the ground. Didn't see a reason to make a car choice based on a couple trips a year. We decided that if we needed to have a car, that my wife would either follow me (short trips) or we would rent once we got to the destination. So far, we haven't rented yet. It all depends on your trip and what you want to do. However, we are thinking of replacing her SUV with something smaller and flat towable. We got rid of the dolly. Sold it for what I paid for it minus $100. Not a problem as I put about 2000 miles on it...lol
