Trouble backing, my daughter had a hard time also, taught her the hand at the bottom of the wheel, push the direction you want the tail of the trailer to go. Also with a 5th wheel , start to straighten out early.

I went from a Ram 3500 Mega Cab 160 inch wheel base to a F350 DRW 176 inch wheel base . I can turn the camper harder with the 8 ft beed. I really don't notice the difference. I guess I just adapted to the longer truck. I have no problems getting it in a spot. Just trial and error but my wife does help. ��
