yup.
the trick is, i have to back it into a turn out, that's about 60 degrees from the line of the main driveway. so the hard part is getting the turn correct, both when and how much, so it ends up somewhat centered in the space for it. i have a 6x6 pinned to the ground at the back, so i can see when i'm back far enough, and can have an idea if i'm centered L/R. the truck is at an angle to the trailer when the trailer is where i want it. mostly end up looking at the pax mirror, so i can see the tires relative to the 6x6. it's not a straight back up job.
