We recently completed our "maiden" voyage with our new coach towing a 2008 Chrysler T&C on a Master Tow Dolly with a surge brake, along the coast of New England. All worked well, except the half hour or so to load or unload the T & C when arriving/leaving the campsite. When I look at some of my neighbors at various campsites that are flat towing, and are hooked or unhooked in less than ten minutes, I get rather envious. Also, my tow dolly is difficult to manually move around, due to the weight. I have been researching flat towing and am somewhat overwhelmed by what is necessary to tow a vehicle - ie disconnect negative terminal, turn on acc ignition, transmission in neutral, additional pump to pump transmission fluid etc. I didn't see any of my fellow campers doing this, but also did not ask them when I watched them connect their vehicle as I didn't know about that. I have the 2015 Guide to Dinghy Towing which addresses all of these procedures. So still don't see how my flat towing campers got away so quickly.
Know flat tow vs. tow dolly has been heavily addressed, but would like to see more current information.
