[QUOTE="soberups, post: 977793, member: 14668"] The allowance for coupling and uncoupling a pup trailer is fairly generous. The "official" method involves lining up the car, pacing off the distance between the hitch and the coupler on the trailer, and then pacing off an identical distance up by the door and placing a rock or a coin on the ground to mark the point that you need to back up to. Prior to the advent of rear-view monitors, I would simply back up until the coupler on the trailer hit the back of the car, and then pull forward about a foot to get the ball under the coupler. Every hitch car in our fleet had identical dents in the sheet metal above the bumper, so the "damage" was irrelevant. With a rear-view monitor, it takes no skill and very little time at all to get hooked up. [/QUOTE]
