I'm also a single female traveler with trailer. Couple of suggestions I have a list that I keep for hooking up and then reverse. This way I always have a cheat sheet to look at. Please please chalk your trailer tires before unhooking. Suggestions I carry bright orange soccer goals that I set out when backing to give me something to see behind me. Practice makes it easier you have this.
My brother told me to go slow, steer from the bottom of the wheel (trailer goes the direction you're turning if hands are at the bottom), once you're lined up, follow the trailer and get out as many times as you feel you need to. His existential calm was deeply appreciated.
Hoorah! I have the same hitch lock and it is awesome. You’ll get used to backing it into place, hooking up, etc. and it’ll be like second nature. It is more work, but it’s worth it. It’s awesome that you just jumped into this whole lifestyle, and a travel trailer with no experience, with a can-do attitude! I think that’s so inspiring. A tip I have is that you can put a taller stack of those yellow block things under the tongue stand so you don’t have to wait forever for it to crank up and down. Another suggestion (from experience) is that the wheel chocks be put in place before the trailer is lifted off the ball. I lifted it one time without the chocks and it started rolling, but Thank Goodness the tongue foot thing stuck in the ground and caught it. Lesson learned! Im so excited for you!
It is simple went back in a combination vehicle you turn your wheel the opposite way you want to try to go so if you want to travel to go to the right, you turn your wheel true that if you want to go to the left it on your way to the right, because you in a combination vehicle
You can do eccentially the same thing as semi truck drivers. When they are backing up, They use the painted lines on the ground to line up the trailer when they are parking at a dock. I have faith in you that you will do just fine with a little practice. All the best to you
Hi Brittany. I am so excited for you and your new home. Yes it's a little more work but then it becomes old hat after a while. Just remember to chock your tires to camper before releasing it. Trust me if you are on a hill chasing it isn't helpful. Lol I know because I did.
Hi there. A backing tip: hand on bottom of steering wheel which will send back of the trailer in the direction you are turning the steering wheel - Example: hand on bottom if steering wheel - turn steering wheel to the right and trailer will back to the right - turn steering wheel the left and trailer will back to the left. My father thought me this and it works flawlessly. Using this method and you don't even have to think about which way the trailer rear-end will go. After some time it will become second nature. Good luck to you young lady and happy travels. Please be safe out there!
Always chock the wheels before disconnect saving your fingers or damage to tow vehicle. You only have 2 chocks place both on one wheel preventing rolling forward or backwards. Safe travels.
Good for you Brittany. Backing up is crazy, trying to figure out which direction to turn the wheel. You’re going to be a pro before long. I have faith in you.
Great job Sis, it will get easier the more you back up. With these one axle trailers sometimes if the ground is uneven it doesn't matter which way you turn your wheel, they will start to go the opposite of where you want it to go. When that happens take a deep breath, relax and pull forward and start reversing again, works every time. I know that you don't show everything on video, but make sure that you level from side to side before unhitching (its important that you are level so that your refridgerator will work properly), chalk your wheels then take the car off the hitch. You can then level front to back with the automatic jack. I'm looking forward to your adventures in that cute Rpod. I have a teardrop and I absolutely love her!
Aloha Brittany, Just a little suggestion from a old (65) school camper. If you think this might help you, Get a Nice Battery Pack Power Drill with High low Speeds for your trailer stands. “Enjoy The Journey”
Greetings from Washington DC Brittany. I know where Lorton Va. is. Early in my career, I had to go to Lorton, Va., to qualify at their shooting range on the prison property. That area has changed so much since they closed the prison. I don't miss that long ride from and back to DC. I pray you enjoy your camp stay.
You did great backing in Brittany. Perhaps one day I will learn how to do that stuff too. I am so excited for you! You are such an inspiration! Spring is approaching! I can't wait to see what you and Jada Baby get up to!!!
I'm so looking forward to spring, but remembering to enjoy these down moments. The slowness of it 🥰🥰 I hope you're able to get out on the road as well... it's peaceful out here
Great job ladybug. We have a pull behind camper and I have never pulled it or backed it up. I help with everything I can. You are stronger than you know.
True, very true, towing a camper trailer is a lot more work and responsibility. I use to own a vintage, tear drop shaped trailer, so be careful. It's a different adventure with a trailer behind you................ Relaxing in my huge colorful hammock swaying, cold day
Congratulations on your new home!! Now you don't have to worry about repairs. I know you're going thru things, I am too. If you ever in Tampa.. I'm here if you want to talk. I wish you and Jada the best!
You did fine backing up. It takes practice. You were practicing GOAL...Get Out And Look. Take all the time you need. Try to get it as level as possible when parking and you will have less work to do. All in all great job. Happy Camping!
You did fantastic backing into your parking space! I just discovered you the other day the videos are fun, informative and real!!♥️ Safe travels you are protected by God ♥️
THIS IS JUST SO MUCH MORE WORK!! I LIKED THE FACT YOU WERE ABLE TO RIDE OFF,WITH OUT GETTING OUT YOUR VEHICLE!! BUT, YOU A BIG GIRL AND CAN HANDLE YOUR BUSINESS!! CONGRADULATION BABY!!
I have binge watched you all day as I am crocheting my hands off trying to finish an emergency bday present. Thanks for keeping me company all day. I tried to be sure and like and comment everything.
Congratulations Brittany!!!! Im HAPPY for you and Jada Baby. Keep the Lord and Prayer in everything you do. Can't wait to see all your future adventures in the new wip!!! (HUG)
Girl you're quite handy and experienced with this mechanical operation. I'm gonna just watch and learn at this point. And as a matter of fact they have a battery operated dolly that actually allows you to physically move your trailer, I mean literally roll it around like you're moving furniture in your house, and it doesn't cost that much. Look at videos of battery operated Dolly's that move trailers.. It's called Trailer Valet XL dolly.
Good job, I see there are some great tips being given so glad for that. I hope you do get a camera for front back side and tracker for your camper also.
Put a cover over the door lock button it’s a must. My dog lock the doors on me while I had the heater running at full blast I was about to break the window and the lock guy finally got there and unlock my car. Dogs and cats lock you out all the time by standing on those buttons. I also get a hide a key as a back up. You got it down already from my point of view.
Girl I'm watching your vid and realize you are at the Aldi up the street from me lol. You are a beautiful person and I wish I could be as adventurous like you... maybe one day. Safe travels.
So proud of you. Backing will get easier. I have the same Jeep and went to an rv show a couple of weeks ago. I’ll have to check the weight limits, but the rPod is looking like a winner!
Outstanding job hooking up the camper, backing in, setting up and paying close attention to sweet little Jada. Well done. Gives me hope that I can do this also😊
When backing up a professional trucker said "Put your hand on the bottom of the steering wheel so if you want the camper to go right you move your hand right. And left direction matches left."
Just bought my very own caravan for solo travel throughout Europe. Looking forward to it but also terrified. Did my driving competency today. My first solo trip to France in November. ❤
I love how independent you are! Doing everything on your own!! That’s how I am it’s the best feeling ever! The only thing with this attachment is in case their is an emergency it’s not easy to up and leave.
You rock girl! What you do is a amazing. You're a inspiration for every women. I love camping and my husband don't. You show me that is possible for me to do it alone. Thanks for your sharing, it's very helpful.😊❤
New Subscriber! Congratulations on your new travel trailer! This is an older video so you may already be doing some of there things. 1. That hitch ball lubricant can be very messy and attracts a lot of dirt. I use spray graphite and it lubes just as well, is not messy and hardly attracts any dirt. 2. It looks like you don't have a weight distribution hitch. With the weight of your TT and the towing capacity of your tow vehicle, you may not need one. How does your TT tow without one? Is there any sway? We tow with a minivan and having a WDH is a must, particularly since minivans sit pretty low to the ground. We use a WDH mainly for weight distribution but it also helps with sway. 3. If you don't have a back up camera on your TT, get one installed. Not only will it help with backing up but you can have it on while traveling and it gives you a view of what is behind you! Safe travels!
Wow, that was a lot. It reminds me of this BF TH-camr I watch, Niesha K that drives 18-wheelers for work. A lot of hitching, etc. Sounds like, from the comments, that it’ll get easier & that’s wonderful! Really good seeing the smile on your face. You got this!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Hey Brittany, Congrats on your new travel trailer. I am so happy for you. I plan to watch all of your new adventures...having a travel trailer is something I often have fantasized about. Enjoy
Darling I think you are doing way more work than necessary.... Just to stay the night you don't even have to unhook. Just raise your tongue lift enough just to take the weight off the bumper. You could still use your levelers if you want but you don't have to... It's just going to rock a little bit more if you don't. Or just use the rear ones to stabilize a little bit.. but if you plug into power just unplug from your truck and replug before you go. . you don't have to do all that unhooking unless you were going to stay there for a couple days or use your vehicle and leave your trailer behind. God bless you and yours and all my brothers and sisters out there!😇
@@WhereIsBrittany that's good... Although I have few years of experience with travel trailers... My site is non-secular, I try to use it to help wake people up and not be of the world. We could only plant seeds, it's the Lord who does the growing and harvesting. If you click the green kay ... It'll take you there.... Blessings! 😇
This is all wonderful. I wish I could afford the money to have my small tiny house. I wish you well. You are young enough to have that experience. I hope, at my age of 75, I can one day have your experience living tiny, I'm not giving up, even on a fixed income.
Hi Brittney, we are fans! We are Rvr'S as well. Very important note. Always chock your trailer tires before unhooking. I'm sure you noticed the short roll back when you disconnected. Please be safe when connecting and disconnecting. One more thing if you don't mind. Don't lock the hitch in the open position either before you disconnect, because sometimes the ball will not so easily pop out from under the cup and your electric jack will raise your tow vehicle as well. Ok again be safe.
Thanks for the info, i don't know what you mean on the second part 🥺 don't lock the hitch in the open position... can you say that in a easier way for me to understand 😮💨 sorry I'm trying to imagine what you mean but I'm still so new
Its a little tough to explain, but if you noticed the electric jack was lifting you car as well as the trailer; sometimes the hitch ball does not pop out so easily (maybe it did for you because of the grease). Anyhow its a matter of convenience sometimes you'll need to hop back in the car and back up or pull forward inches to be able to disconnect. Thanks again for sharing you travels.
you are doing good girl you are already figuring things out on your own it will be alot easier as time goes on and you learn all the ins and outs and what works best for you
Am I the only one saying Driver, driver now passenger as she backs up? I love her innocence in the matter but too what a great place to practice backing up!
Yes a bumper pull is more work than a motorized rv/van/bus. I finally sold mine as there was too much getting up and down and I'm a lady in my senior years. I liked the minivan camper a lot. I even had an SUV made into camper, but minivan was my fave. I did miss being able to stand inside. Especially when there was a string of bad weather days. Your new little trailer is cute and will give you some new adventures.
Former truck driver here. Try to remember to have a good set of gloves handy to put on every time you handle your hitching and unhitching. You don’t want to injure your hands and the gloves give you a good grip. Also, get you a routine you do every time you travel so you’ll never forget anything. Backing up remember the direction you turn your wheel your trailer goes the opposite. Get out as many times as you need to check your trailer. Happy travels!!🙏🏽🤍
Hello Brittany, just wanted to throw some advice your way per Domino.fill the gas tank add fuel stabilizer, put tires on planks run some RV antifreeze through your pump till run out the sink and put some laundry softener sheets in the drawers and some moth balls around underneath the field mice and city mice love a vacant RV or vehicle and some good silicone caulk might fix your leak but you probably know got it all taken care of but just in case you forgot..... Happy travels with the new wagon I'll be looking forward to riding along vicariously 😂
Interesting - we had considered the camper route but went with our van instead - just for these reasons - and so far do not regret that decision! Keep making memories & adventure on! ~Karen & Shannon WOY
Hi Brittany. Always, always chalk your wheels before you unhitch. If you look at your video you can see that your trailer started to roll. That could be a catastrophe. Put one chalk in front of a wheel and one chalk behind the same wheel. Be careful!
Just a reminder, if you go to back up a trailer, steer the opposite way you would normally do backing up. The trailer has a pivot point and will always go the wrong way if you back up as you normally do into a spot without a trailer. REVERSING A TRAILER: (Turn right for the trailer to go left/turn left for the trailer to go right). Cheers
It also helps to use one hand bottom center of the wheel. Move it in the direction you want to go. Very small adjustments since the trailer is so short. You got this!!
@edwardmoore9666 With practice, she'll be a pro in no time. I drive a 73 foot vehicle everyday and I have to be proficient and safe about it, even backing up on a blindside (backing up without being able to see on the passenger side). Cheers
I'm also a single female traveler with trailer.
Couple of suggestions
I have a list that I keep for hooking up and then reverse. This way I always have a cheat sheet to look at.

Remember when backing turn the way your trailer is going to straighten it up. You got this !
Good job, don't forget to get wheel blocks to hold the trailer in place, and enjoy your new home
You can do eccentially the same thing as semi truck drivers. When they are backing up, They use the painted lines on the ground to line up the trailer when they are parking at a dock. I have faith in you that you will do just fine with a little practice. All the best to you

Good job hitching up and backing in!
How you backed up to the trailer to hitch it was impressive- You handled it like a Pro! Happy safe travels and camping.

A travel trailer may be more work than a van or motorhome but their way more comfortable when you get to a destination
You did that girl, good for you. You are doing really good so proud of you.
Am I the only one saying Driver, driver now passenger as she backs up? I love her innocence in the matter but too what a great place to practice backing up!
Awesome job hitching your bumper pull trailer 👏
You can get mirror extensions so your blind spots won’t be bad while on the freeway/city
Wow, before moving to Las Vegas, I lived in Woodbridge, VA and that is where you stopped at for Aldi!!
Hahaha it's fun seeing familiar places right ☺️
Yes a bumper pull is more work than a motorized rv/van/bus. I finally sold mine as there was too much getting up and down and I'm a lady in my senior years. I liked the minivan camper a lot. I even had an SUV made into camper, but minivan was my fave. I did miss being able to stand inside. Especially when there was a string of bad weather days. Your new little trailer is cute and will give you some new adventures.
Former truck driver here. Try to remember to have a good set of gloves handy to put on every time you handle your hitching and unhitching. You don’t want to injure your hands and the gloves give you a good grip. Also, get you a routine you do every time you travel so you’ll never forget anything. Backing up remember the direction you turn your wheel your trailer goes the opposite. Get out as many times as you need to check your trailer. Happy travels!!🙏🏽🤍
Hello Brittany, just wanted to throw some advice your way per Domino.fill the gas tank add fuel stabilizer, put tires on planks run some RV antifreeze through your pump till run out the sink and put some laundry softener sheets in the drawers and some moth balls around underneath the field mice and city mice love a vacant RV or vehicle and some good silicone caulk might fix your leak but you probably know got it all taken care of but just in case you forgot..... Happy travels with the new wagon I'll be looking forward to riding along vicariously 😂
Congrats to you and your new home. Safe travels & God bless❤️
I am watching rhe video and literally swerving as you pulled into Aldi parking lot. Get it!
Interesting - we had considered the camper route but went with our van instead - just for these reasons - and so far do not regret that decision! Keep making memories & adventure on! ~Karen & Shannon WOY
Hi Brittany. Always, always chalk your wheels before you unhitch. If you look at your video you can see that your trailer started to roll. That could be a catastrophe. Put one chalk in front of a wheel and one chalk behind the same wheel. Be careful!
Your rpod is wired for a backup camera, get the company that sells the pod to place one in. If you order the system on line, it may be cheaper
Just a reminder, if you go to back up a trailer, steer the opposite way you would normally do backing up. The trailer has a pivot point and will always go the wrong way if you back up as you normally do into a spot without a trailer. REVERSING A TRAILER: (Turn right for the trailer to go left/turn left for the trailer to go right). Cheers
It also helps to use one hand bottom center of the wheel. Move it in the direction you want to go. Very small adjustments since the trailer is so short. You got this!!
@edwardmoore9666 With practice, she'll be a pro in no time. I drive a 73 foot vehicle everyday and I have to be proficient and safe about it, even backing up on a blindside (backing up without being able to see on the passenger side). Cheers
Yassss back on the road we goooo 🚙 💨
