the only time backing a trailer is difficult is when you can't see the trailer, ala empty waverunner or tiny flat bed.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

Only bitches can't back up a trailer.

 

[EmersonHart13]

This is so

 

[guspech750]

What in the fucking fuck is this tomfoolery?

If you own a trailer and can't back it in. Then you probably should not own a trailer.

How much gayer can Fords get?

Hell I have a camera on the back of mine that makes it damn near idiot proof. Do we really need a computer to do this for people?!

I was at goodfellas once and Tony was fixing a boat trailer because some guy fucked it up launching his boat. So yes, people need this.

True. But the universe ALWAYS builds a better idiot.

ford logic: instead of using the steering wheel that you're used to driving with, twist this little knob back and forth like you're driving an RC car with your $100k boat on the back

....and in 10 years of road salt the knob gets glitchy and puts your boat under the pier.

Its sad that I have seen plenty of guys needing this. Especially in Semis. terrible

 

[Gav'sPurpleZ]

the couple times i pulled a trailer... i needed [MENTION=148]HILROD[/MENTION] to back it up.

[The Beast]

At least you asked or realized you needed help. I grew up with my dad telling me what steering input to do. And I learned a lot. So now I'm the go to guy at the track to get everyone into place and what not.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

I just tell people at work I have no idea how to back up a trailer, even though I did it constantly at my last job

 

[P40E]

The guy was turning the knob and the steering wheel was spinning very fast .

I see in the future somebody using this and getting their hand stuck in it or they will be trying to do it with something in their hand and it will get knocked out from the wheel spinning. Maybe a lawsuit or two , from personal damages or to the trailered items .

Yip x2. I hate backing it up, and I don't tow often enough to get good at it. [MENTION=750]RICH17[/MENTION] is my guy.
