    The longer the trailer the easier it is to back. Every once in a while I pull a 28' pup and it's a lot harder. One time I towed a car on the back of a U-Haul. My family got a kick out of watching me try to back that thing.

    A Uhaul trailer behind a pickup truck is the best practice you can get though.

    If you can handle that setup, a daycab with a 48’ liftgate will be a breeze.
