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!
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.
Amazing..my friend has a portable backup camera on hers and it helps her a lot
Congratulations! The new hitch! Please put Jada away when you’re setting up😮 I was holding my breath the whole time uncranking. Also you probably shouldn’t put your legs under there as well 😬
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.
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.
Thanks for the tip 💖💖💖
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!
🥰🥰 thank you for taking the time to type this out, appreciate the tips 💖🌼
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
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
I’m so proud of you queen you hitched that trailer like a pro ❤❤❤❤❤ 2023 we are welcoming positive vibes and prosperity 💪🏽💪🏽
🥰🥰 yes we are!! That's the ONLY thing I am welcoming 🌼 Thank YOU so much for watching 💖
Of course, your motivation for my own nomad 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.
👍🤩💝Terrific job with the trailer. Excellent job backing in and setting up too. 💝
💡🙏PLEASE DON’T touch your FACE with the GLOVES. 😩
You are doing a great job backing in. So glad you know to get out and check where you are in the process. Slow and easy. Never rush.
Thanks so much 🌼
I smiled through this whole video, you are my spirit person. I was praying for that back in though great job🤣🤣🤣.
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.
Quick tip…….. Turn your steering wheel opposite of the way you want trailer to turn. Great job!
Thanks for the tip!
Vehicles are nice,but I wish you had one you can just drive away quickly Incase of emergency
That was a great job you did on your suv and trailer, your awesome!!!!!!!!
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
Good job, don't forget to get wheel blocks to hold the trailer in place, and enjoy your new home
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
When ever you are back in Arizona let me know you are welcome, Avondale, Az
Remember you are extra long now, watch your turn, that back wheels 😉
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😊
Awww I wasn’t ready for the video to end. I’m so happy & proud of you !!!!🙏😁💕
🥰🥰 thanks friend
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”
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)
Just started pulling my camper. It is a lot of work but the experiences I've had out weigh it all. 😃 You back in like I do LOL
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!
When I was watching you unhook I seen you did not have your wheels blocked. BLOCKING WHEELS IS NUMBER 1 THING TO DO. And block in front and behind of the wheels so it dont roll. It rolled on you when you unhooked it from truck. Go back and watch.
Hope your remote keys are always on you if Jayda baby can lock the door 🥴
Safe Travels can’t wait to watch this new adventure.
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!
That's pretty awesome first time back up by yourself that's good practice make perfect 😉😊😁🌹🌹
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.
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.
Hi when you back up try to be as straight as you could to where you’re going to back up at. The steering wheel place one hand at 12 o clock . You are going to stay between 10 to 12 to 3 like on a time clock keep it going in between those numbers only back n forth… next thing you know you’ll be backing her up straight ❤❤❤❤
That's my favorite campground, it's crazy you're in my area, we could have met up.
Watching you back that camper made me remember CDL class...you got this, sis. The more you do, the better you get and ya did it.
🥰🥰 thank youuuuu 💕🌼
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 ♥️
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.
Congrats!!!🎉 Its weird not seeing you and Jada in Domino, but this will definitely be less stressful! Question, can you stay in the camper with it still attached to your vehicle? I’m new to this 😊
Yes, I've done it at cracker barrel on those quick overnight stops but if I'm staying over 2 nights, I'm unhitching
I'm so happy for you. Beautiful stone and smart nothing stopping you bless you 🙏 💓 💗 💛 ❤
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!
Also might want to look into a surge protector just be be safe when hooking your power up using the adapter ❤
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.
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!
Congrats! Enjoy! Stay happy! Be safe! Godspeed.
Looks like you have better cooking equipment now - Make yourself some great meals 👍
Congrats, and you look so well rested. May god continue to bless you and stay safe out there you and jadababy🎉😊
Omgness…you’re in my area!!! Looking @ the road signs I’m in Virginia
Hello Brit don't know why I'm so excited to view your content but I AM!😊🤟🏾I was gonna play catch up and do a marathon but I picked here and there To gain insight as I prefer to start where I 1st met you and stay on track from there as each notification brings me excitement in looking forward to viewing Your experiences With Jada as your companion!👍🏾💐🍖😉...ps
Yes I'm sure it seems like more work than it was when you had domino's but look at the brighter side you can unhitch And choose to go places without people that you meet along the way knowing your lifestyle lol!🫣🥹👍🏾🤪
This is why I switched to a Van. Depends on what your priorities are. For me, getting there needs to be easy, I spend most of my time outside anyhow.
Get yourself a couple more bock for the tug help raise it more and you can pull off is more cause you don't know on different lots there level I use 4 blocks
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.
i'am new to your channel and thinking about the van and camper life things is to much today me and my cat
You got this it's a little more work but you just got it with a little practice you will be fine stay safe and blessed as you continue on your journey
You are working it out baby girl!! Backing up, hitching and unhitching your new home. I’m happy for you and so very proud of you. Continue to follow your dream. Do you have a P.O. Box? I would like to send you a care package. And yes, the Lord is on your side! Keep smiling, be safe😊 ❤
A travel trailer may be more work than a van or motorhome but their way more comfortable when you get to a destination
Yeaaaaaa....I can barely wait until it's my turn...I want a campervan.

👍👍💪🙂👍👍
So happy for you, keep moving forward, 🙏🙏
You done good make sure you chalk Wheels before unhooking that way it don't run into your vehicle❤️
Brittany, you are working so hard. I only want to encourage you in your endeavors. You are an amazing person.
🥰🥰🥰 thank you, I appreciate you noticing 🌼
Cheers and hooray for sister sister and your resilience ❤. So proud of you. Enjoy your first trip in the new chapter. Safe travels❤
Ok Brittany I love the new girls and their names you riding good now
You were close to me ! I live in Fredericksburg, VA
Looks like a lot more work but what matters is your happiness!!!!! And that you for taking us with you!
🥰🥰 thank you for watching 💖💖
OMG, that was you I saw in Aldi! I kept telling my daughter, “I think that’s Brittany” and she said, “Mom, no one comes to Woodbridge”. 😫
Hahahaha it's a small world 😅
"Maybe 🙆😩if yo ASS go to work you'll do better. Food 🥑🥝 for thought 🤔🤨 , just saying!!!"🤷👌🤞✌️💯🙋🏽♀️🤗🙏
Who me? Huh?
Looks like the new journeys will be more fun for you. I'm looking forward to it. May your journeys bring you much happiness.
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!😇
Thanks but I stayed multiple nights there... but I get what you're saying
@@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! 😇
@@WhereIsBrittany PS you're a beautiful young lady be careful out there!
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
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!
🥰🥰 thank you and I'm happy with Tamera
You are a great backer upper, just keep telling yourself that! I am excited about your new beginning
You look so happy!
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!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Go for it eat your salad you deserve a decent meal away I love your video 😄🥰
Great job Britt, make sure to have a check list when you hitch and unhitch, Do the darn thing I love it.
You are glowing 🤩 You did that with Tia & Tamara! I’m sooooo happy for you & Jada❤️🐾
Greetings. Congrats on your new home. Not sure if your hitch has an anti-theft device, if not please consider getting such. Best wishes✨
Love to see you so happy, broke my heart to see you cry…have fun
I am so excited at you doing the dang thing making the hitch/unhitch look so easy when I KNOW it is not. Kudos!
you are an awesome driver! vanlife4ever!
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.
You did a great job parking it. And. For this being your first time it was perfect❤
Heyyy Ms. Brittany!!! Are you enjoying your new Camper? I bet you are. Could you do a tour of your Camper? If you've already did I missed it. Is it expensive to have a puppy/dog? Enjoy sis 🤗🤗!!
I am enjoying the space, and I've had a fur baby for over 15 yrs now... I don't feel like it's expensive but I don't have kids and stuff lol
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."
That's my father in law's Aldi
Lovely getting to follow your journey! 🌹
Looks as if you ate ready to establish a routine. Good 4 you, Brittany. I am very happy for your new ride and diggs. Enjoy your new adventure, stay safe, keep positive and be about that joy.
Hello Brittany that backing up job was spot on. Looking forward to all of your new ventures in your new home 😊stay safe
