Always lacked coordination.......

[Brian37]

So just now, I was watching my Hispanic neighbors back a pickup truck with a flatbed open trailer between my yard fence and their porch. Kinda like threading yarn through the eye of a needle. I cant do that shit, I have no coordination in anything, eye mirror, sports, none of that. So I am watching this guy back up without hitting anything and joked with my neighbor, "Glad he was driving, because if that had been me, you wouldn't have  porch."

Some people are better at things I am not.

On a related note just now. I mentioned in another thread that their wire framed Christmas dear had fallen over because of wind a couple weeks ago, that Santa went deer hunting. Just now I basically asked them why they hadn't upright'ed them and one guy said, "You killed them didn't you?" I responded , "Damned right".

Backing up a two wheeled trailer is a piece of piss - it' s simple as can be.


Try backing up a four wheeled trailer - like a hay wagon - where the front wheels steer via the drawbar.

THAT'S the one that separates the men from the boys...

No, that is what separates the coordinated from those without coordination. I am sure plenty of women can do the same thing.

I' m sure there is somewhere.


But I haven't met a woman yet, who could back a trailer...


I probably would if I hung out in truck stops....



Heh

Heh

I've had female bosses throughout my life.  Not in the truck driving industry no, but plenty of female bosses.

I'm a very good driver (said in my Rain Man voice) as long as I am traveling forward. Backing up has never been my skill. I hoped maybe my car having a back up camera would help me squeeze in between the fence and my husband's truck. All it has really helped with is not being too close or too far away from the garage door.

Years ago I moved with my kids from the Midwest to Arizona (military move) and pulled a U-Haul behind my car. First time ever with a trailer to deal with. We made it without incident but I never want to do that again.

Husband used to be a diesel truck mechanic and can maneuver any kind of big truck from concrete mixers to tractor trailer rigs so backing a regular car/truck in anywhere is something he doesn't even give a second thought.

Talent is like a muscle. You get stronger at whatever it is by doing it.

Vaginas and peni don't determine if you can back up well. I have a penis and trust me, you don't want me backing up a semi or even a pick up with a flatbed trailer, unless you want your shit fucked up.

That's nothing.
Try backing up a tractor and trailer with three bins on it, full of apples, down a tight orchard, onto another tractor and trailer to give it a push start when the batteries are dead. :-)

I have problems with parking in tight spots, even with a regular sedan. I guess I'm not man enough then.
