Elisabeth backing up with a horse trailer

[cocopelli34]

Wow! I couldn't have done that. Everytime I go to back up the trailer turns immediately to jack knife. I don't know how to correct that. You were amazing. You go girl! Well done.

I think the horse is getting sick. No just kidding. I'm doing good to back my 8 foot utility trailer looking out my back window.

Just bought a small Brenderup horse trailer. Going to pick it up next week. Haven't backed one in 55 years! I will have to use my side mirrors as I want to be able to pull it with my Volvo or 24' motorhome. Your video helped put me back in the driver's seat. Thanks!

Nice, job. But reading your blurb, you should only be using your side view mirrors backing.

So true about only using the mirrors. It is a nice crutch to be able to see out the back window since when backing to the right, there comes a point where all you are able to see is the side of the trailer in the right mirror, and it is quite hard to judge just how close you are to jackknifing the trailer.

They don't call it the blind siding for nothing. Also G.O.A.L Get Out And Look. You can tell 90*, when the front right section is seen in the mirror is perpendicular to the mirror for the most part.

Great job! I can hardly back up the lawn tractor with a small dump cart behind it! :)

Truth be known, backing a short wheel base dump cart behind a lawn tractor in many ways is actually much harder than a long wheel base trailer.

Nice job.
