Can’t do that by ride sharing and renting a car for 6 weeks would cost an arm and a leg. For most of our travels we don’t plan to tow though. Maybe just take the mopeds. I don’t think folks would tow if they didn’t find it beneficial.
I found my Acme Ez-Tow tow dolly Pre Owned for $800. Put on new G rated 10 ply tires from etrailer.com for about $100 and new straps.
I believe it has the highest capacity rating, and the best Warranty. Check them out on YouTube they have very good videos on operation.
With the dolly you dont have to add equipment to your vehicle, and no need for auxiliary braking equipment, if you get a dolly with surge brakes.
Just pointing out a option that works for us.
Like someone said, dont worry about how long it takes, just do it safely !Click image for larger version
