Helpful Expert Reply:
When dolly towing a vehicle such as your 2008 Toyota Yaris, you will indeed want to lock the steering wheel.
The Roadmaster # RM-2050-1 features electric brakes, but the trailer connector for the tow dolly is sold separately. A 7-way trailer connector is most common, we offer them as part # PK12706.
You'll also need to equip your tow vehicle/motorhome with a brake controller. A remote mount brake controller like the Redarc Tow Pro Liberty, part # RED24FR would be an excellent choice. A universal wiring pigtail is available as part # RED69FR, but custom, plug and play harnesses are also available for various vehicle makes/models.
If you'd care to reply with the year, make and model of vehicle you'll be pulling the tow dolly with, I'd be happy to make some specific recommendations.
