Hi all,
Thanks for the replies. Correct, no way to turn the trailer around at the end. Well, *maybe* a way, but it is pretty tricky - I did it with a 23' cargo trailer (empty), and the front end dragged a bit pulling a tight uphill turn. I don't want to get down there forwards and find out that I can't get out again! :)
Point taken about visibility with the truck facing the trailer tongue. Hmm, maybe I could flip my towing mirrors around? I agree, the visibility is poorer, but maneuverability should be better. The problem with reversing is the wheelbase of the truck is long, and with only 12' of width, that doesn't leave much room for adjusting the direction of the trailer.
Oh, and one other thing I thought of - I would need a 7-pin extension cord, so I could still plug the trailer in and use the electric brakes.
Anyway, keep the feedback coming - still open to being talked out of my crazy scheme :)
Cheers,
Chris.
