    My God. I sure asked the wrong, unfriendly, unhelpful people. Oh well. Just so you all know, I was dead serious about this. But since I won't get a real answer, please close this thread, mods. Better yet, delete it.

    You can't teach a person how to back a trk from videos or the forum and you're not going to learn it in one day.So get your ### out there and find someone to train you.

    Dude, we are having fun. The problem is that you can not tell someone how to do it, as Patty said, you have to be shown. Each vehicle has a different setup and different points to turn on, a bus doesn't act like a straight truck so it has to setup differently.

    Imagine you just went into a star wars forum and asked so... whats this force thing anyway? Thsts what you did. A straight truck is jist a big regular truck. Properly adjusted mirrors, and watch your rear tires....
