Use every bit of real estate ( property ). Use drivers side backing every chance possible. No real estate, blind side and use GOAL, No embarrassment. Another driver offers to help use the additional tool. No help: GOAL. take 50 times who cares. Receiver and everyone else can wait. no hurry backing. Hit your target without damage is #1 priority.

Relax and drive the truck. Don't over think it. Follow the advice here. Get out as often as you need to and look. You can do that.

All my trucks had remote controlled mirrors. The last 25 we bought in the last year all have remote mirrors also.

Go into your yard on a day off and practise, that's what I did. We get our new guys to do it for backing up trains. You only get good, by doing it a LOT and challenging yourself. If you every have to back down a windy, snowy road at night, you'll be glad you did. Trust me.
