Trailer or dolly?

First timer here, come May I expect to head from Florida to Grand Tetons with a RAV4 behind a Hurricane 31K on the Ford chassis. With the RAV, four down towing isn't an option. Now I need to make a decision between trailer or dolly. I understand that a dolly will make reverse movement almost impossible. On the other hand, the trailer options I see will put me over the weight limit.
I am told the RV can handle 500 tongue and 5000 total tow. The RAV is 3500 and trailers run 1600 to 2000 lbs. Which option will be less risk? No reverse or overweight? Will appreciate some wise advise from a old hand at this.
