    Thanks. This was nice and easy explained. I had no difficulties with reversing a trailer, but now the caravan causes more problems, as it reacts way slower and it has been difficult to predict the moves.

    • @92813justin
      @92813justin  Před 4 lety

      That will just take a little time to get used to how the trailer reacts to your inputs. You now have the basics and will be set. Just give it a little bit of time to be comfortable
