    Pro tip for beginners. After your set-up and you start backing as SOON as you see the trailer not going where you want it STOP!. pull up as far as you can and turn left if you're too close to hitting the trailer or turn right but not too long and aggressive if you over shot and try again . Pull up and repeat .

    Backing a 53 for dry van trailer is a feeling you got to feel it! My best advice whoever reading this learn all the basics and make it you're own do what's best for you cause everyone back's differently.

    Backing depends on many factors for example how tired you are. Everytime it's different sometimes it's easy sometimes it's challenging. The key 🗝️ is slow 🦥 & small turns

    @rosesiskreyol ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I believe she did a 45 degree backing, setup is right facing 12 o'clock and left facing 9 o'clock, going back straight for a little bit watch where your trailer is going and follow and make small adjustments or pull up as needed

And when I choose the flatbed truck, I put on reverse and backing up real slow without hitting anything. And then...bingo! I parked 100% complete! YAY!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉. Well done, Kayla!💙💙💙💙💙🌷💖💖💖💖😎☀👍

    Hey kayla hope you doing good. I'm not a subscriber or anything like that. I wanted to say thank you because when i first went to truck school for my class A CDL i was excited and feeling pretty good. until they started talking about the pre-trip and all the things we had to remember for the test and things if we wanted to get our cdl. At the end that day i almost wanted. When i got home and went on youtube i seen your video; this one i'm committing on of course. I after i saw how you were doing the driving and them backup and how easy you made them look, i new right way i can do it too. Well that's what i did, and today i have my class a cdl. Has i'm committing on this video right now i'm in a hotel room getting ready for my 2 day of orientation with ROEL TRANSPORTATION.
    THANK YOU KAYLA AND KEEP THE GOOD. Maybe one day i'll run into. I'll be doing the MIDWEST REGION. THANKS AGAIN.

    Great video Kayla, just returning from my first trip with my travel trailer. All pull through sites so no challenging backing but we were on a small road that I missed the turn off back to the freeway. Found a small dirt road that I backed the trailer into so I could turn around and it worked out ok! Also some challenging parking in gas stations and grocery stores that I managed pretty good. With this trailer and my boat trailers I use something you said, turn towards your trouble works every time. Thanks to your sexy girl for helping you record this video!!

    Basically all you gotta do is keep the trailer straight whether you’re going left or right, it needs to be straight and locked in that position. If you start turning too much, you’re not going anywhere thats a jackknife.

    Good Morning Kayla Have you ever had to blindside into a dock or parking spot . It's very interesting to see how you spot the trailer so easily .
