I've seen 110v-powered and 12v-powered trailer dollies in catalogs that do exactly that. They have a t-bar type handle, two driven wheels, a ballmount on top, and they're specifically of jockeying tr

Easy answer to this one...get a front hitch for your truck. They make them although they are sometimes hard to find. I had to wait about 6 months after I purchased my 2000 GMC to get a front hitch be
