    If you'd been chewing betel nut, wouldn't have felt the pain. Buy it on Ebay.

    Yesterday was my first day backing it's definitely tough. I can do it with someone telling me but by myself I can't. I'm up looking at videos. A guy told me to try a toy truck and practice watching it back also in a mirror try using your hand like you turning a wheel on top of the steering wheel train yourself to if you turn left your trailer will turn right turn your steering wheel right your trailer will turn left I've been doing that in a mirror and swaying my hind-parts it's silly looking at but whatever you need to do to pass is the end result. I'm taping in the truck on paper left trailer goes Right and turn right trailer goes left. Good luck man don't give up on your dream. Also if you do want to try Millis it's $500 up front they put you in a room but you do need to have your own food.

    Not on Ebay. When they don't want to talk about whatever, they put their palm down then with a brushing motion with hand and fingers, shoo you away.
