Look into Blue Ox tow apparatus bolted onto the towed vehicle.
And a Ready Brute tow bar apparatus to link the RV to the towed vehicle.
Info about both online.

I went with used jeep. Wanted to be able to drive on beaches and off road. Found tow bar, braking and wireless light bar on CL. I used a Towing Skid Plate for attachment, very low profile
Some day I'll see if I can sell both RV and Jeep as a package.
I also have a hitch carrier for my motorcycle. Haven't tried that yet

Jayco 24B,
I’ve been trying off and on for several months to post pictures on this forum. If I may ask, what’s your secret?
Thanks
Barry

Then you need to find some place to store it while camped not to mention jockeying it around after unloading. I know some love them but there is enough to do with setup to have to worry about a trailer/dolly too.


There are a number of threads on the sight about towing and various configurations with various brands. Use the search bar (in gold) at the top of the page.


Roadmaster Nighthawk 767
Roadmaster direct connect baseplate
DuoPlay brake system
It takes 10 minutes to hook up, and you flip a switch for brakes. No clunky contraption between your front drivers seat and the brake. When you remove the front conections, noone can tell there is a system there. As you can see I tow a Jeep. It takes 3 minutes to set the Jeep up for towing.



There are other systems out there that are as good and like what oil to buy, it is up the the person wanting to know. Make you own choices after reviewing the info available via SEARCH or Google. But a tow dolly would never be my choice, just saying.

I use the web version of the software even when I'm on the phone. So the mobile version might be a bit different.

It is a two step process.

Step 1, click on the Paperclip. Click "Choose. File", than click "Upload". Once uploaded. Close the window.

2nd step, click on the Paperclip again, select your images, and close the window

Wherever your curser is at is where the images will be inserted.

Good luck
