I hate tow dollies. http://forum.specmiata.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?/topic/31/15.html#000009
A tow dolly will be a good first step. That way, you can skip over the open trailer you would have owned for about 8 months before deciding that an enclosed trailer (that doesn’t have to be unloaded in the dark at 10:30 on a Sunday night – and can serve as ‘trackside lodging’) is more your style. Which happens about 18 months before a toterhome and stacker makes more sense than putting the kids through college.
Or maybe that’s just me.
PS - I don’t know about the wear and tear on the car, but all kidding aside an open trailer will be way easier on the equipment. Any you can back up with one when some d-bag pulls into the space right in front of your grill at McDonald’s.:laugh:
