Electric travel trailer dolly
« on: April 14, 2022, 07:57:27 PM »
Is there one brand that outshines them all? I am a little more than 6% grade and will have to cross a small patch of turf.

In my experience with them, you need a solid surface to operate them on.  I returned mine, it did not work well/ at all on gravel.

A runaway TT, or anything for that matter, is a scary thing. Even a 6*, you will not be able to stop it with any dolly if it decides to go a different direction. Those are primarily made for moving on a level hard surface.
Money better spent, IMHO, would be to put a hitch on the front of your vehicle, if that option will work to do what you want to do.
I have one on both our SUV's. Don't use them often, but they work well for tight spots and hauling MC's.

Even the one with tracks doesn’t get good reviews off level pavement. 
Problem is you have a 500# set of tires trying to move a 5000# set of tires.   Anything other then hard level ground physics is against you.   Hitch on front or rear of a tractor would be handy.
