The type of vehicle used to haul the disabled vehicle will be more important especially with higher load out back.
I tried to tow dolly a s10 Blaxer with a S10 Jimmy. It didn't go well...lol
No where near enough brakes to do this. Blew through a few lights on Telegraph one night. In hindsight, I probably should have slowed down. But, hey whats the fun in that?

Do some dolleys have brakes? And you have to pull driveshafts also don’t you
A gun is like a parachute. If you need one, and don't have one, you'll probably never need one again.

I should've mentioned the dolly I used to have had brakes. That helps a lot especially with a heavier load. Whenever I pulled something with rear wheel drive I pulled the driveshaft.
Thanks for the info. Right now the tow vehicle would be a 07 Expedition and at some point replaced with an F-150. The Bronco is a manual trans with manual transfer case so I if do end up with a dolly I would probably just put both in neutral. Leaning more towards a trailer though.

I used a reg cab short bed S-10 to tow dolly another S-10 from Boston. Took it slow and it was fine. I haven't pulled axes in RWD vehicles, I always just leave them in neutral. If you pull the axle how do you keep the trans from dumping fluid out? How is it any better than leaving it in neutral?
