Not so my friend. LMBO at your ignorance. And, I posted $5K to $10K, sounds like your setup was pretty much in range.LMBO I have no idea where folks get quotes for setting up 4 wheel flat towing. 10K plus?
I just got a quote to do my Colorado ZR1......Baseplate, Air Force one, lighting, battery disconnect. All installed $3,295. Add a towbar $1,200 so $4,495 max.
Buying a quality, new Master Tow Dolly and accessories about $2,300 (your 2023 price)
Now lets look at ease of set up for a flat tow..............
Connect tow bar to toad, plug in connector, connect air hose, on my vehicle, switch off battery. All standing upright, rain or shine
Now lets set up a vehicle on a tow dolly................ take out and set up tow dolly ramps, make sure vehicle is centered, slowly drive your vehicle up the ramp and make sure not to drive over the stops. Get under vehicle and remove ramps, one per side, attach the ramps to the tow dolly. Now get down on the ground and tie down the vehicle, passenger side, now go around to drivers side and do the same. Then go in front, get down and connect safety chains.
I am exhausted and if its raining its worse, I am drenched and exhausted.
So a roughly $2,200 difference but now, every time you hook or unhook on your tow dolly you have to get on the ground and go through that process.
I can hook up my flat tow and get in tow mode in 3 minutes, while you are still setting up your tow dolly ramps.
The same amount of time? I will bet 100k that its not even close
When I am home I do not have to find a place to store my tow dolly.
Surge brakes are better then an AF1?
Master Tow Dollys, the ramps are attached, pull the tilt bed pin, drive on to the dolly, put car in park, lock steering wheel, set parking brake. Insert bed pin, strap left front tire, standing up, ratchet down, repeat opposite side, release parking brake, done.
10k is in the range of 5k?
