  4. Backimg with a eurotruck is super easy. Firstly the short distamce betwen the axle on the tuck make it really manuverable. The fact that that it steers around a set axle also helps. There is no slipage as in a ua truck. The trailers also typically only have one fixed axle. The normal combo is one lift, one fix and one steer. Its when you have two points like a 4 axle wagon its a bit more complicated.

  5. The trailer is a europam trailer. It have the european features and also tri axle that is very rare in the us. It might be streched, but its hard to se here. Worth sayimg that while the typical european trailer is 12.4 meter. There also trailers that is close to 15 meter.

  6. Sometimes you may need to reset and train again from.. well not zero, but train by someone who have a good tecniqe. To me its always about havinf a techniqe that makes it simple. And.. well. Do that 100 times so its in the bones.

  7. @Dutch3DMaster  the issue if you are not relaxed when backing up (or doing anything) you lose periferal vission.. Its one of those things. A close relative to me recently killed a dude in a car acident. It was clearly his fault. But the scars.is there anyway.

  8. @michaelpearl-r8w  yea. I get that. But sometimes you need so to speak rescue someone else. Even if it.happen something and it not your fault. Its really .. misserable. Having some extra atention is really nice.

  9. I would say its easier with a truck. Because you have the mirros just inline with the side of the trailer. So its really easy to se if its straight. With a fsrm tractor. That is a bit harder.
