Driving tips for first time with tow dolly
Today I'll be using a tow dolly behind my motorhome for the first time. Moving from Minnesota to Tennessee. :D Any last minute tips for driving with a tow dolly? Thanks!

I understand what you're saying because U-Haul probably got their directions from Demco. U-Haul has used Demco dollies and that is the directions Demco publishes. When several other RV.Net members confirmed that my suggested strapping worked better I contacted Demco. They said there was nothing wrong with my suggestion but they chose not change their suggested procedures.
For years this forum members complained that dollies were no good because the straps came loose too often (pulling the toad against the stop). For the past several years numerous members have responded that allowing the ½ to 1 inch front of tire clearance before strapping eliminated all of their strap problems.
