[QUOTE="trickpony1, post: 598355, member: 1957"] tre305- Backing a trailer isn't difficult. Two rules to remember: 1) the steering wheel turns to the right and to the left. 2) the end of the trailer can only go to the right or to the left (or straight if no steering wheel input). Turning the wheel to the right causes the end of the trailer to go to the left. Turning the wheel to the left causes the end of the trailer to go to the right. Avoid the habit of sticking your head out the window. Use the mirrors and train your brain to respond to what it sees in the mirror. The shorter the trailer the quicker it will respond to any steering wheel input. That's why you see alot of new drivers "oversteering" when they back up because they are "chasing" their trailer. Be patient, don't get in a hurry and it will happen. I sometimes have trouble backing my car up because it doesn't wiggle in the middle. [/QUOTE]
