Canuck with a truck
Oh this thread is so cute. A 4x8 utility trailer behind a dually is 10x harder to back up than any single trailer big truck combo. Try backing up a jeep and wheeler a mile and ending up within 2" of center and dead straight with a 120,000lbs load you have to winch on. That's getting tough. Lol

Small trailers are hard to back up, the company i worked had a small 4x8 utiliy trailer they also had large dump trailers and several 20-30ft box trailers. I also found the small trailer was way harder to back up combared to the big trailers, but nothing compares to the small cement mixer that we us at my work virtually impossible to back up without jack knifing.

Judging by your comment I can preetymuch say you dont have any experience with towing and your prob the guy that tows the load put only on a straight away and when time comes to back-up you pass the truck to someone else. IMO towing a trailer is not hard once u get practice i dont have much experience yet but many people that posted here do and you can ask them how hard it is to tow an oversized trailer or a load trhough deadly roads. I posted this thread just for fun and see what came out of it it started out preety good but some of the last comments killed it.

Wow........ Can't believe this didn't die off the first day.
Back a 53' semi trailer thru a one lane alley to the Western Beef warehouse in New York City, then I will be impressed.
