i grew up backing up tractor +trailers of every description. (my father
practically collected them :P) oh yeah and boat trailers. (he collected
those too). i think there were contests for trailer backing up. double :P
but i remember learning how to do it... got into trouble a couple times
and had to be rescued! (hey i was only 8 or something)
