Re: [A/S] home again,
Donna,
The type or brand of hitch makes no difference when backing a trailer.
I believe most of us that have had the opportunity to compare will agree
the smaller the trailer the greater the challenge. The shorter distance
from the trailer axle to the hitch make the trailer respond quicker to
steering changes.
The old recommendations still apply, hand at the bottom of the steering
wheel, move you hand in the direction you want the BACK end of the
trailer to go, and with a shorter trailer go very slowly.
It will take practice but eventually you will get the hang of it. There
just isn't a quick fix.
