Same situation here. Just this weekend, while traveling back and forth to Florida in the car, I found myself watching for and looking at every motorhome carrying a car with them. The three basic options, 4 down, dolly or haul on trailer..and I saw multiple examples of all three. If I were pulling the trigger today it would be purchase an older 2 door Wrangler with manual transmission and haul it on a short, tandem trailer. With the manual jeep I would always have the 4 down option later. Having a short 4WD jeep would allow exploration on trails and there's room in the back for the pooches. May change my mind but avidly looking for a tricked out older jeep in the late 90's to early 2000's. The 4 down option seems like too many things having to work in sync and the total costs would pay for the trailer plus some. I can also carry other things on the trailer like ladder, extra fuel, portable generator(s), etc. Gives you more options.
