Have you ever tried to hook onto a trailer with your wife / GF / woman giving you backing directions?
It goes like this, "<hands waving you back>, <to the right>, <to the left>, BAM <sound of the trailer tongue hitting your truck>, <stop signal being waved>."
Ever experience anything like this? I did last night and I think it's better to just do it yourself.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
be careful bro..some of the women on the forums will get offended and get you into trouble if they see this thread [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]
trust me I know by first hand experience. I cannot officially comment on this topic.
Dont let her drive the truck.. Should see the tailgate on my cousins truck. them Dodges set a lil higher than the real truck (F350 7.3L). After I drag the Gooseneck around with the Ford and unhook it i purposly leave it at the height I can back back under. then she will goto drag it with her truck and be in a hurry and go flyin back to it and BAM much her tailgate. Im really surprised it closes still. and you would think she would learn after the first time. but Nope Blondes i tell ya. People tryin to give me backing signals always screw me up. waaaay easier to do it yourself.
I dont know whats so hard about paying attention to your rig while backing. i guess its like walking and chewin gum or sompin. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] they make a kewl lil gizmo that hooks to your ball that if you can get with in a couple inches it slides it on the ball for ya. Its like backin the dumpy up to the puppy. line the tires up and wait till it goes bump. I cant count how many people i seen take out the air-cans or couplers with them things. cracks me up. Kinda like crashes always funny as long as the victim didnt get hurt to bad.
Ladies...aren't you going to stick up for yourselves?[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
Well, I guess they all agree with the fact that they give lousy backing directions.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]
Yup thats the contraption i was talkin bout. allthough i dunnout how it keeps the gooseneck from takin out the tailgate [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
