    Backing inside a building is a challenge when there are no lights, so if you've achieved this feat then you are indeed "on your way" to becoming an ol' crusty.

    My first two had plenty of room for setup. The third (and the same place for the fourth time) had a typical city street width to do the 90 degree back. When I was lucky there were no cars parked on the far side of the street.

    and also luckily, the hole in the building was two trucks wide and they only put one truck at a time... so this whole post pretty much doesn't count 'cause of that!

    Heheheheee

    Nice, and I had to back into two buildings with no lighting already :) One warehouse had me drive my whole truck inside and dock at an angle which I never seen before.

    There's a place in Worcester, MA I've backed the entire truck inside of. All 48 feet of reefer plus tractor. And you're backing up hill while doing it, quite a chore!

    Looks like a place in Brooklyn I had to back into once, at an angle, off the street. As long as you don't hit anything, a dang good job!

    You ain't seen nothing yet.:biggrin_255:
    Once spent an hour in downtown Boston trying to convince a jackwagon that my 102 in wide trailer could not back down a 98 in wide alley. "Open the doors"he said. "Dude, that does not make the trailer narrower".

    Some people's kids.:biggrin_2554::biggrin_2559:
