Tight alley backing

Wolf: If you get in and out and dont ever hit anything, your doing a good job. The blowhards that like to brag about how good they are, i tell them show me. The guys that are good backing a trailer dont have to brag. We see how good they are when they put the truck in reverse.

 

It doesnt matter how good or how bad you are, there will always be somebody be somebody there to talk smack. When I pull into a place and I hear one loud mouth, then my cb goes off. I dont care if I have to get out of that truck 20 times, right in front of everyone, I will do it if Im not comfortable.

We all have days where we nail that tough one with once shot, where nobody saw it and then can't hit a simple straight back at a truck stop

 

lol dont you love those, one night I spent over 20minutes trying to park, was a really tight spot and I almost flagged a goat to help me but I kept at it and finally got it in, next day I get to an even harder spot and its in the hole in 2 minutes. Later I try to back into a truck stop where there were 4 spots open and I got it in 2 spots and had to pull up a few times, very frustrating and embarrassing lol. I seem to do better when its a tighter spot or 1 open spot, im horrible at imagining a marker at times, easier for me to see a truck/trailer as a marker and get it in around it.

One night I watched a guy get out and put a red rag on the ground and made his trainee use it and park. Only seen people use markers like that a couple times.

and yeah black my backings are 100% accident free and I try hard to keep it that way, I have scraped an object turning however....

 

That flag is a fantastic idea! I had a yard stick that I painted bright yellow that I used for spots that were unmarked or where I needed a line to guide me
