![Jordan Adetunji - KEHLANI REMIX (feat. Kehlani) [Official Video]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/EeJ8n5PxFGE/mqdefault.jpg)
My brother told me to go slow, steer from the bottom of the wheel (trailer goes the direction you're turning if hands are at the bottom), once you're lined up, follow the trailer and get out as many times as you feel you need to. His existential calm was deeply appreciated.
Amazing..my friend has a portable backup camera on hers and it helps her a lot
Hoorah! I have the same hitch lock and it is awesome. You’ll get used to backing it into place, hooking up, etc. and it’ll be like second nature. It is more work, but it’s worth it. It’s awesome that you just jumped into this whole lifestyle, and a travel trailer with no experience, with a can-do attitude! I think that’s so inspiring. A tip I have is that you can put a taller stack of those yellow block things under the tongue stand so you don’t have to wait forever for it to crank up and down. Another suggestion (from experience) is that the wheel chocks be put in place before the trailer is lifted off the ball. I lifted it one time without the chocks and it started rolling, but Thank Goodness the tongue foot thing stuck in the ground and caught it. Lesson learned! Im so excited for you!
I'm also a single female traveler with trailer.
Couple of suggestions
I have a list that I keep for hooking up and then reverse. This way I always have a cheat sheet to look at.
Please please chalk your trailer tires before unhooking.
Suggestions I carry bright orange soccer goals that I set out when backing to give me something to see behind me.
Practice makes it easier you have this.
Quick tip…….. Turn your steering wheel opposite of the way you want trailer to turn. Great job!
Thanks for the tip!
It is simple went back in a combination vehicle you turn your wheel the opposite way you want to try to go so if you want to travel to go to the right, you turn your wheel true that if you want to go to the left it on your way to the right, because you in a combination vehicle
When backing up a professional trucker said "Put your hand on the bottom of the steering wheel so if you want the camper to go right you move your hand right. And left direction matches left."
You can do eccentially the same thing as semi truck drivers. When they are backing up, They use the painted lines on the ground to line up the trailer when they are parking at a dock. I have faith in you that you will do just fine with a little practice. All the best to you
I’m so proud of you queen you hitched that trailer like a pro ❤❤❤❤❤ 2023 we are welcoming positive vibes and prosperity 💪🏽💪🏽
🥰🥰 yes we are!! That's the ONLY thing I am welcoming 🌼 Thank YOU so much for watching 💖
Of course, your motivation for my own nomad journey
Hi Brittany. I am so excited for you and your new home. Yes it's a little more work but then it becomes old hat after a while. Just remember to chock your tires to camper before releasing it. Trust me if you are on a hill chasing it isn't helpful. Lol I know because I did.
Thanks for the tip 💖💖💖
Great job Sis, it will get easier the more you back up. With these one axle trailers sometimes if the ground is uneven it doesn't matter which way you turn your wheel, they will start to go the opposite of where you want it to go. When that happens take a deep breath, relax and pull forward and start reversing again, works every time. I know that you don't show everything on video, but make sure that you level from side to side before unhitching (its important that you are level so that your refridgerator will work properly), chalk your wheels then take the car off the hitch. You can then level front to back with the automatic jack. I'm looking forward to your adventures in that cute Rpod. I have a teardrop and I absolutely love her!
🥰🥰 thank you for taking the time to type this out, appreciate the tips 💖🌼
Good job, don't forget to get wheel blocks to hold the trailer in place, and enjoy your new home
Good for you Brittany. Backing up is crazy, trying to figure out which direction to turn the wheel. You’re going to be a pro before long. I have faith in you.
You are doing a great job backing in. So glad you know to get out and check where you are in the process. Slow and easy. Never rush.
Thanks so much 🌼
Congratulations! The new hitch! Please put Jada away when you’re setting up😮 I was holding my breath the whole time uncranking. Also you probably shouldn’t put your legs under there as well 😬
Awww I wasn’t ready for the video to end. I’m so happy & proud of you !!!!🙏😁💕
🥰🥰 thanks friend
You did great backing in Brittany. Perhaps one day I will learn how to do that stuff too. I am so excited for you! You are such an inspiration! Spring is approaching! I can't wait to see what you and Jada Baby get up to!!!
I'm so looking forward to spring, but remembering to enjoy these down moments. The slowness of it 🥰🥰 I hope you're able to get out on the road as well... it's peaceful out here
Always chock the wheels before disconnect saving your fingers or damage to tow vehicle. You only have 2 chocks place both on one wheel preventing rolling forward or backwards. Safe travels.
Remember when backing turn the way your trailer is going to straighten it up. You got this !
Hi there. A backing tip: hand on bottom of steering wheel which will send back of the trailer in the direction you are turning the steering wheel - Example: hand on bottom if steering wheel - turn steering wheel to the right and trailer will back to the right - turn steering wheel the left and trailer will back to the left.
My father thought me this and it works flawlessly. Using this method and you don't even have to think about which way the trailer rear-end will go. After some time it will become second nature. Good luck to you young lady and happy travels. Please be safe out there!
Just started pulling my camper. It is a lot of work but the experiences I've had out weigh it all. 😃 You back in like I do LOL
Brittany, you are working so hard. I only want to encourage you in your endeavors. You are an amazing person.
🥰🥰🥰 thank you, I appreciate you noticing 🌼
Watching you back that camper made me remember CDL class...you got this, sis. The more you do, the better you get and ya did it.
🥰🥰 thank youuuuu 💕🌼
Great job ladybug. We have a pull behind camper and I have never pulled it or backed it up. I help with everything I can. You are stronger than you know.
You look so happy!
Aloha Brittany, Just a little suggestion from a old (65) school camper. If you think this might help you, Get a Nice Battery Pack Power Drill with High low Speeds for your trailer stands. “Enjoy The Journey”
You did fine backing up. It takes practice. You were practicing GOAL...Get Out And Look. Take all the time you need. Try to get it as level as possible when parking and you will have less work to do. All in all great job. Happy Camping!
A travel trailer may be more work than a van or motorhome but their way more comfortable when you get to a destination
OMG, that was you I saw in Aldi! I kept telling my daughter, “I think that’s Brittany” and she said, “Mom, no one comes to Woodbridge”. 😫
Hahahaha it's a small world 😅
Good job hitching up and backing in!
This is all wonderful. I wish I could afford the money to have my small tiny house. I wish you well. You are young enough to have that experience. I hope, at my age of 75, I can one day have your experience living tiny, I'm not giving up, even on a fixed income.
True, very true, towing a camper trailer is a lot more work and responsibility. I use to own a vintage, tear drop shaped trailer, so be careful. It's a different adventure with a trailer behind you................ Relaxing in my huge colorful hammock swaying, cold day
Greetings from Washington DC Brittany. I know where Lorton Va. is. Early in my career, I had to go to Lorton, Va., to qualify at their shooting range on the prison property. That area has changed so much since they closed the prison. I don't miss that long ride from and back to DC. I pray you enjoy your camp stay.
This is why I switched to a Van. Depends on what your priorities are. For me, getting there needs to be easy, I spend most of my time outside anyhow.
I am so excited at you doing the dang thing making the hitch/unhitch look so easy when I KNOW it is not. Kudos!
Outstanding job hooking up the camper, backing in, setting up and paying close attention to sweet little Jada. Well done. Gives me hope that I can do this also😊
That was a great job you did on your suv and trailer, your awesome!!!!!!!!
You did fantastic backing into your parking space! I just discovered you the other day the videos are fun, informative and real!!♥️ Safe travels you are protected by God ♥️
Congratulations on your new home!! Now you don't have to worry about repairs. I know you're going thru things, I am too. If you ever in Tampa.. I'm here if you want to talk. I wish you and Jada the best!
I smiled through this whole video, you are my spirit person. I was praying for that back in though great job🤣🤣🤣.
Also might want to look into a surge protector just be be safe when hooking your power up using the adapter ❤
When ever you are back in Arizona let me know you are welcome, Avondale, Az
This was fun to watch and the music choice was immaculate!
Thanks fren 🌼💕
Yeaaaaaa....I can barely wait until it's my turn...I want a campervan.
THIS IS JUST SO MUCH MORE WORK!!
I LIKED THE FACT YOU WERE ABLE TO RIDE OFF,WITH OUT GETTING OUT YOUR VEHICLE!!
BUT, YOU A BIG GIRL AND CAN HANDLE YOUR BUSINESS!!
CONGRADULATION BABY!!
Girl I'm watching your vid and realize you are at the Aldi up the street from me lol. You are a beautiful person and I wish I could be as adventurous like you... maybe one day. Safe travels.
Congratulations Brittany!!!! Im HAPPY for you and Jada Baby. Keep the Lord and Prayer in everything you do. Can't wait to see all your future adventures in the new wip!!! (HUG)
Girl you're quite handy and experienced with this mechanical operation. I'm gonna just watch and learn at this point. And as a matter of fact they have a battery operated dolly that actually allows you to physically move your trailer, I mean literally roll it around like you're moving furniture in your house, and it doesn't cost that much. Look at videos of battery operated Dolly's that move trailers.. It's called Trailer Valet XL dolly.
I love your little home Brittany and as usual be safe you and Jada baby.
Looks like a lot more work but what matters is your happiness!!!!! And that you for taking us with you!
🥰🥰 thank you for watching 💖💖
Hi Brittany. Always, always chalk your wheels before you unhitch. If you look at your video you can see that your trailer started to roll. That could be a catastrophe. Put one chalk in front of a wheel and one chalk behind the same wheel. Be careful!
Hi Brittney, we are fans! We are Rvr'S as well. Very important note. Always chock your trailer tires before unhooking. I'm sure you noticed the short roll back when you disconnected. Please be safe when connecting and disconnecting. One more thing if you don't mind. Don't lock the hitch in the open position either before you disconnect, because sometimes the ball will not so easily pop out from under the cup and your electric jack will raise your tow vehicle as well. Ok again be safe.
Thanks for the info, i don't know what you mean on the second part 🥺 don't lock the hitch in the open position... can you say that in a easier way for me to understand 😮💨 sorry I'm trying to imagine what you mean but I'm still so new
Its a little tough to explain, but if you noticed the electric jack was lifting you car as well as the trailer; sometimes the hitch ball does not pop out so easily (maybe it did for you because of the grease). Anyhow its a matter of convenience sometimes you'll need to hop back in the car and back up or pull forward inches to be able to disconnect. Thanks again for sharing you travels.
@rollingwithbliss8175 I actually got you lol thanks for responding!!
You are glowing 🤩 You did that with Tia & Tamara! I’m sooooo happy for you & Jada❤️🐾
Cheers and hooray for sister sister and your resilience ❤. So proud of you. Enjoy your first trip in the new chapter. Safe travels❤
Thanks for taking a old lady along in your voyage. I can’t travel like I use to and it makes me happy to go along on your voyages 😊
Love your music choices!
Congrats! Enjoy! Stay happy! Be safe! Godspeed.
Lovely getting to follow your journey! 🌹
Yassss back on the road we goooo 🚙 💨
Told You. You Can Drive Anything. That Was Awesome Backing Into That Small Spot
Great job Britt, make sure to have a check list when you hitch and unhitch, Do the darn thing I love it.
Wow, got it in one go. Nice to see the solo trailer hookup process, thanks!
I have binge watched you all day as I am crocheting my hands off trying to finish an emergency bday present.
Thanks for keeping me company all day. I tried to be sure and like and comment everything.
👍🏽 Good job, Brittany! Whohoo!!!
Put a cover over the door lock button it’s a must. My dog lock the doors on me while I had the heater running at full blast I was about to break the window and the lock guy finally got there and unlock my car. Dogs and cats lock you out all the time by standing on those buttons. I also get a hide a key as a back up. You got it down already from my point of view.
You did great backing up! And every time you do it, it will get easier! Good for you!!!
Girl, you’re a boss!
Wow, that was a lot. It reminds me of this BF RUclipsr I watch, Niesha K that drives 18-wheelers for work. A lot of hitching, etc. Sounds like, from the comments, that it’ll get easier & that’s wonderful! Really good seeing the smile on your face. You got this!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Thank you for sharing a solo woman doing the darn thing 🙌🏽🎉🙌🏽🎉
You did it girl!! I appreciate you showing this. It makes me feel so much better!
You are a great backer upper, just keep telling yourself that! I am excited about your new beginning
You did that girl, good for you. You are doing really good so proud of you.
Looks like the new journeys will be more fun for you. I'm looking forward to it. May your journeys bring you much happiness.
Hope your remote keys are always on you if Jayda baby can lock the door 🥴
Safe Travels can’t wait to watch this new adventure.
So proud of you. Backing will get easier. I have the same Jeep and went to an rv show a couple of weeks ago. I’ll have to check the weight limits, but the rPod is looking like a winner!
🥰🥰 thank you and I'm happy with Tamera
Am I the only one saying Driver, driver now passenger as she backs up? I love her innocence in the matter but too what a great place to practice backing up!
I admire you Brittany....enjoy your journey!
Thank you so much!!
That’s our “scientific” way of setting the height on the trailer while hitching up!🙌
Yay! New adventures in your new rig! Everything looks so beautiful! How exciting!
Thank you!! 😊
Yes!
Good job, I see there are some great tips being given so glad for that. I hope you do get a camera for front back side and tracker for your camper also.
First thing your want to do is chock those before disconnecting the truck. Steps: first you always want to assess your site to see how close power and water hookup are (if available).
1) Level trailer side to side 2) chock tires front/back of tires 3) remove chains & power adapter 4) level trailer front to back 5) let slide out (if you have them)….then enjoy
So excited for you and Jada! Can’t wait to see where your travels will take you in your new ride/camper🎉❤
I'm so excited for you and can't wait to see what's in store!! 🤗🤗
you are doing good girl you are already figuring things out on your own it will be alot easier as time goes on and you learn all the ins and outs and what works best for you
Congrats to you and your new home. Safe travels & God bless❤️
Love to see you so happy, broke my heart to see you cry…have fun
Congrats, and you look so well rested. May god continue to bless you and stay safe out there you and jadababy🎉😊
I am so happy for you. Great job backing it up for first time. Safe travels.
How you backed up to the trailer to hitch it was impressive- You handled it like a Pro! Happy safe travels and camping.
You rock girl! What you do is a amazing. You're a inspiration for every women. I love camping and my husband don't. You show me that is possible for me to do it alone. Thanks for your sharing, it's very helpful.😊❤
So cute backing up the trailer. Looking nervous 😳but doing it!!! 😃👍
You did a great job parking it. And. For this being your first time it was perfect❤
Hey Brittany, Congrats on your new travel trailer. I am so happy for you. I plan to watch all of your new adventures...having a travel trailer is something I often have fantasized about. Enjoy
What a nice camper, you backed up find. It’s a little more to do as far as settling in, but once that’s done it look comfortable.
Battle, you are getting that camper together like a pro...like you have been doing it forever! Safe Travels!
🥰🥰 thanksssssssss
Hello Brittany that backing up job was spot on. Looking forward to all of your new ventures in your new home 😊stay safe
Wedges on both sides of the tires please. It can role either way. You are doing great. I pull my travel trailer by myself too. I am older but still excited to find someone else that is independent. You are like sunshine. Thanks for sharing.
You done good make sure you chalk Wheels before unhooking that way it don't run into your vehicle❤️
I love how independent you are! Doing everything on your own!! That’s how I am it’s the best feeling ever! The only thing with this attachment is in case their is an emergency it’s not easy to up and leave.
That's pretty awesome first time back up by yourself that's good practice make perfect 😉😊😁🌹🌹
