    I don't know, but it may be hard to find him due to the stealthiness he acquired.

    So anyone have any secrets to backing up a trailer? It was my first time just now and it is soooooo frustrating. I found out you turn the wheel opposite the direction you want to go lol I was doing so many zigs and zags and straightening out the truck and trailer.

    Lot's of practice haha. Eventually it'll *click* and you'll know how to turn the truck to push the trailer where you want it.
    If you'll be towing a lot find yourself a nice big open parking lot to practice.

    Small adjustments on the wheel, and don't hesitate to pull forward to straighten out and try again.

    Just practice. Small trailer and long trucks are the worst. I had to learn a year ago how to back up a 5th wheel into a tight spot. That's a whole different beast trying to drive from the center of the bed.

    ya if you can practice for before that you should. the smaller the space the more frustrating it'll get if you don't have it somewhat down!

    Grab the bottom of the steering wheel instead of the top. The trailer's going to head whichever way you turn from the bottom. That may help get you started.

    The other thing is to get the trailer's back end pointed where you want it to go, then slowly turn the wheel in the opposite direction to have the tow vehicle start to follow the trailer. Hopefully that's helpful - I'm no expert and still find myself zig zagging sometimes, too.

    Good luck!
