Question:
Do I need to shift my auto transmission into neutral while towing it with a tow dolly? Logic tells me no, however I dont want to leave anything to chance.

When towing a vehicle with a tow dolly like the Roadmaster # RM-2050-1 you'll need to follow the instructions in the owners manual of the vehicle as that's always the final authority on flat towing procecures. In nearly all cases though you'll need to keep in park.
