I was thinking about a tow dolly also.  It's just easier to store a tow bar.
  I've always heard that towing a car in neutral was a bad idea, but could
never figure out why.  Is it because of extra wear?

Yeah, shipping can be a real PITA for Hawaii folks.  It would probably cost
just as much as the dolly.  Not worth it.

DC, my car is still very much streetable.  I'm just getting a little closer
to the 12 sec. mark.  This gets me worried about breaking the tranny.  It
would make me feel better being able to tow myself home.  Instead of paying
over $200 for a tow truck to do it.  It's also nicer to be able to load all
of the heavy stuff in my 4Runner.  I don't like putting a lot of weight in
my car.
