One tow dolly option is to rent one first for a short trip to confirm it's what you really want. You may find its not worth the hassle, or that you'd rather trade for a flat-towable toad.

Like Laco, we also prefer to not tow at all, which is why we have a 20-foot van that can go and be parked pretty much anywhere. Your RV is much larger, so your needs are very different. However, even when we've rented larger motorhomes for longer trips, I've not towed.

When in doubt, I try to rent initially to get the feel of what I'm after. Renting a motorhome before buying my first MH helped in deciding what I needed/wanted. Renting camping trailers a couple of times confirmed we don't really like trailers, etc. For us it's been money well spent.

I've flat-towed a couple of my vehicles (but not for "recreational" use), as well as rented dolly and car trailer. Of these, flat towing was the lesser evil.
