You sir are a god among men! Trailer backing rookie here. Your advice of keeping your hands on the bottom of the wheel was perfect. Took my time and got my rv backed in. Thank you!
At 34 years old I just pulled my first trailer...10 footer. I gave up trying to back it in to my narrow driveway. Thanks for the tips, I'll use them when I have to get BACK out of it tomorrow!
thanks for putting this together. im the embarrassed boater with a really short jetski trailer completely jackknifed on the load ramp!! love the tips about getting your wheels straight. gonna try out this weekend! thx!
Thank you!!! I was given a 28 ft RV and it’s just say in my driveway for a couple months because I’m Leary to take it out and not being able to back it back in !!! But I really liked the steering wheel trick you taught!! I’m gonna try it now !! I think I’ll be successful!! Thanks again
CRAZY!!! Unbelievable how you can back up so far, and most of us mere Earthlings can't even back a trailer up straight!!! LOL Thanks for the great tips!
Good luck to you. Went to trucking school back In 2004. Driven just about anything. Be safe and try to get as much as you can out of the school your at. You will learn more from the company instructors. Well at least I did.
Thank you for your recommendation on how to adequately back up trailers, you backed up Like a pro, seriously though you practically executed your tip superbly.
Really like the tip about the arrows! However, i was taught another method. When straight line backing always keep equal amount of trailer in both left and right mirrors. If you have too much trailer in one mirror turn your steering wheel in that direction to "take away some of the trailer." The trailer should always be balanced between the two mirrors. Also, you are so right about the shorter the trailer the more difficult it is. I found that out first hand. Never so frustrated and my ego really took a shot! lol
Thank you! You explained it so clearly. This takes all of the mystery out of backing up! I especially liked the arrow example. I am no longer nervous about backing up.
God bless u man and your family. U are a life saver. I always backup and i see where the trailer is heading then if i need to adjust it i do it. But now right off the bat I know where the trailer is heading to without testing first god bless u 🙏🏻
Thank you I think one a my problems is I turn the wheel to much to begin with. I like the 1/4 turn recommendation. Arrows at the bottom I like that as well.
thanks for the driving tip. Here's a RU-vid tip: instead of telling people take it with a grain of salt they don't like it, if they don't like it tell them to leave a comment telling why. Also, even a dislike drives videos higher in the RU-vid rating system then nothing at all.
hey how you doing ..... I've been looking for your simple learning technique to backing a truck with a trailer up for a long long time bro thankyou thankyou.
forward-pulling, reverse-pushing. if you're pushing an object, how would u affect it to make it go left/right?? hence steer right to go left, steer left to go right. brake straight, then turn. apply the laws of physics to ur driving.
