Re: [DMCForum] Re: Making plans for PF (Tow Dolly)

[Jim Strickland <ihaveanaccount@xxxxxxxx>]

I would call driving the car "necessary wear" on the parts of the car. 
Dollying the car will cause *unnecessary wear* (at least to the wheel
bearings) because there would be NO wear if you weren't such a cheapass
and just got the full trailer.  

I agree that the wear  would be negligible over short or sporadic
traveling.  For the people towing or dollying a car behind their camper,
however, a car can get 10's of thousand of miles on the
bearings/differential that doesn't show on the odometer.

:P
