Default Trailer back up follies

So funny. I recall practicing quite a bit when we got a trailer for the Yamaha Grizzly ATV my son wanted so bad. We both spent quite a few evenings at the local high school parking lot which would be empty to practice backing up with a trailer. Peter from Family Guy puts into context here. https://youtu.be/2oq0YNo02KM

That was hilarious! We’ve got a pontoon boat that clears our garage by 3” on each side. Lots of bad language getting that baby in the garage!

You’d be talkin about that guy in the shiny maroon hammock ... yeah, I was laughing my ass off at that get-up.

How bout that King Ranch F350 4x4 near the end? Beer must’ve been a factor ...

Just a rule of thumb: If someone looks at you in your swim wear and can tell whether or not your circumcised, they're too tight. For the love of Mary, cover it up.

And don’t drive your freakin’ rig into the water! The hammock wasn’t the point. It is his pea sized brain.
