This Trucking Game may not be a view from inside the cab, but it's the most realistic physics that a truck makes where you get to understand how to truck operates in reverse. American Truck Simulator (ATS)and European Trucking Simulator 2 (ETS2) are the best trucking games that you get, and I recommend that you play them, but my game is created for people to just get used to reversing a trailer.
I have heard from so many users that truck schools across the country use my game and use my videos to show their students how to back up.

I do not consider myself especially qualified to give advice, but when asked by an inexperienced driver, my first advice is, "Calm the f*ck down. Do not worry about those supertruckers watching you back in. Take your time and get out and look as many times as you need to."

@MyTruckingSkills Год назад

*well said!!*

@robertking7269 Год назад

GOAL. You might be surprised how many driver doors open up and spot for you. Super truckers have been driving so long they forgot how long it took them to be comfortable with reverse

But sir,in a straight line backing,do I have to wait till the trailer is straight with the tractor before I steer straight?

@Matt-uy8tw Год назад

Thank you. I'm four months in the trucking; you gave me confidence CDL school and my training couldn't do for backing.

@nvrbetrwhoohoo3941 Год назад

I’m the same. Four months in trucking still suck at backing even though I am 10 times better than when I started. My CDL school taught the bare minimum in backing, just enough ‘to pass the CDL test. It really sucked and didn’t really help me at all.

@NightowlTrucking Год назад

I think American Truck Simulator (or European) and My Trucking Skills nicely complement one another. You get a bird’s-eye view with my trucking skills that gives you a different perspective from ATS. Also, with My Trucking Skills, you can immediately start working on backing, but with ATS, you have to do a lot of extra stuff to get to a dock and practice backing. I love them both.

@MyTruckingSkills Год назад

Agreed

@intuitivebreach8969 Год назад

NGL, I downloaded the ATS demo and messed around with the backing from in cab cam, and it's pretty accurate.

@robertking7269 Год назад

Thanks Brother. The best tip besides watch your shoulder and the world moves around you. Setup so your truck is parallel and you follow your trailer in. If you can't make it pull up far enough so you can. We get paid to go forward; if it sounds expensive before you bump dock. You just paid to go backwards.,

Hey there, I am loving the basic app, but as I am a flat bed driver (usually a 48" spread axle, sometimes 53 and step deck) and was wondering if the paid version has the option to change from a tandem van to variable spread axle. Will buy if so. Thank you for everything, you've helped me a ton!

@MyTruckingSkills Год назад

You are not able to choose the axle positions in the game. But there are levels in the CDL LEVELS where you drive a 48 spread, they are usually towards the end of the category. The game wasn't written where you could choose what sizes you want. Can't change the code.

@northofknowhere130 Год назад

Great video and I've downloaded the software you created about a year ago, which is a very helpful tool, but I do have a question. I have just over 9 years and 500,000 miles experience drive a Kenworth T270 box truck and my employer is offering to send me to a local CDL school in a month or two. A box truck is a world of difference than a full semi truck, so do you believe getting a steering wheel for the software would better help?

@MyTruckingSkills Год назад

Yes it does make a difference, it may not be the real thing, but its better than using your finger to control the steering. If you are going to get a steering wheel, get the PXN 900 amzn.to/3W8T042, works like a charm. The Logitech g29 is just over kill, but still works. Having driven a box truck helps, its better then just having driven a car, you are more aware of a surroundings.

@Dr.Pepper_not Год назад

Request. I am certainly NOT a trucker. Would it be possible to modify your game to model a TRAVEL TRAILER?? Pretty Please? I’ve been using your game to learn how to back and I’m sure when I do “for real” will be much helped by your content (games & videos). So thank you. I had a 27 ft. travel trailer (so wheels in middle of ~24 foot trailer + tongue). Would like to practice on your game to get a feel for trailer swing, etc. (e.g. how pull out of gas station knowing which way to turn if mess up and need to get out of a jam and still not take out the pumps!). Using the short trailers vs. long 53” on your game now is certainly different and harder to back (thought would be easier - was I wrong). Suggestion? Could you do this? Would be able to market to RV industry so could be a boon to you I think . . .

@Grunttamer Год назад

I am in the same boat. I have a “bean” camper and the thing is very short and is a bear to back. A f150 pulling a custom length trailer with customizable number of axles and tongue length would be bad ass

@LovepreetSingh-dc7ye Год назад

I always turn too early and ends up very close to my driver side.I think the trailer is going well when I am about to straight up I can see I messed up.I am struggling a lot with backing especially at flying j pilot truck stops as I dont what back to do 90 degree or 45 degree .

@gmstabloid Год назад

When you see that, stop. Put your steer tires straight. Pull forward about 4 feet. Turn left and start backing again. Repeat as needed.
