How to Tow Vehicle that Doesn't Have Base Plate Kits Made for it

Question:
I have a 1990 Geo storm I want to tow from my RV. There is no geo storm option in your down list. Also the attachments on the car are horizontal instead of vertical. What can you offer?

Expert Reply:
Best option we'd have would be a tow dolly for your 1991 Geo Storm. The benefits to a tow dolly over flat towing are that you don't have to install anything on the front of your vehicle, the dolly can be used on a different vehicle without having to rebuy towing components, and the price realistically is about the same and in some times cheaper.
For a tow dolly we have the Roadmaster part # RM-2050-1 which has electric brakes and taillight signals built in.
Base plate kits, wiring kits, and supplemental braking units can be pretty time consuming to install so this really is a great option.
