Thanks, yes it is in Arizona. Paying asking price and feel like it's a pretty good deal. New build in South Phoenix.

I saw an ad recently for a crazy RC powered trailer dolly thing. It looked too small to possibly work, but if it does, it looks amazing.

Yeah, here it is: https://www.theverge.com/circuitbrea...-trailer-valet

Edit: Given the price, I suspect it's legit! Probably overkill, but pretty cool.

Will neutral steer! Technically pivot steer but still called neutral steer by old tankers.

Now that is way cool:

But not cheap!

This less expensive and transportable...but limited to 500 lb tongue weight.


If you are parking an open trailer with the car off it, the Fulton F2 I pictured earlier is about $150 and should be ok on that short, flat driveway, with the caveat that the 7" wheels won't really handle a rough surface (sand, large diameter stones) well.
