Another option which you might consider is "neither". Of course, it all depends on how you use your RV. If you go and sit someplace for a week, then I can see towing a vehicle. In our 4 month, 15,000 mile trip this summer, there were only a few times that we really felt we needed a car. Those times, we rented one for a few days. In Alaska we rented a jeep for a couple of days to take some back roads that were impassable with our RV. When you look at the cost of the towed vehicle (wear and tear) , the dolly and maintenance, and the extra fuel cost and wear and tear in the RV, I figure I saved a whole lot of money, not to mention the wear and tear on me, by renting the few times I really needed it. I've trailered 20' power boats and second cars half way across country, and driving the RV without a tow is a lot more pleasant. The Axis is small enough and easy enough to unhook and hookup, that you can take it shopping or to dinner. Just something you might want to consider. When we examined replacing our Vegas, size was a determining factor.
