I like the American Car Dolly and I am leaning in that direction, however.....
The electric brakes have me concerned due to the added parts and more to go wrong. The surge discs are what I like to the simplicity and experience I had with them on boat trailers. If I wanted to add a break away safety feature it sounds lie I would have to add a battery to dolly, correct? Another added part and weight.
I am really torn between the ACME and American. There is a used ACME by private party for $1000 that is complete, used for 2500 miles, and is 7 mos old.
So, at this point, my short list is....
USED ACME for $1000 (and $200 bucks in fuel to pick it up and one days drive: 4 hours away one way)....Total $1200
