First Solo Load, Hardest Backing I Ever Had To Do

I finally got er in, but woah I was stressed out. I just had to take a deep breath and keep my cool. I never had to back in from the street before. I had traffic backed up but I just had to keep focus.

Good job driver. Slow and steady. Baby steps.

Great job, Harvest! There will be more of these backing challenges from the street, so just do them the same way and keep any frustration level dialed down to low.

What's up, Delaware? What's it like backing that thing? I figgure with practice, it would get better, but I don't think it will ever get easy. I wonder if companies had looked into technology, like you see on cars, with a camera, to make it a lil safer. Seems like it wouldn't be too hard to do or expensive. Who knows if it would make a difference?

Great work, Harvest! Trust me, it will get easier. In reality, I don't mean easier by next week! It took me over a year to be comfortable with the 90 degree dock. But you will survive.

I can say it is easier than when I first started, I was p hopeless with any kind of backing. But I think it’s like anything, with practice it gets easier. It would probably be really expensive for a company to equip every trailer with cameras. And seeing what is exactly behind you isn’t really the hard part. It’s swinging the trailer to go on a approach that will go into the spot. I think it was Turtle that told me, it takes 10 feet for the input of your steering wheel to affect the trailer. So it’s a cat and mouse game of predicting and reacting.

When I say "tough," some of my friends would say, "you misspelled 'fun!'" LOL I guess I'll save it for school before I worry about that too much. Take care!
