Actually Dave, I meant it exactly the way I said it. This is not even possible under the most extreme circumstances. What the video shows is extreme pivoting to the limit of hitch travel in either direction. Practically, it would be quite impossible to get your trailer out at nearly 90 degrees to your TV and then switch all the way over to the opposite side. I don't care whether it's a Hensley or not, by the time the TT is beside the TV you're both in the ditch on the roof.
My bad, I was attempting to help clarify what I thought was a rather broad statement. I like to try to avoid using terms like never, or always, I find them to be too absolute, which usually leaves me open to have a clever guy poke a hole in my story..belief...theory, or whatever. Sorry
BTW, I wasn't attempting to show potential angles of articulation in my video, but rather the HA,s motion. I'm aware that TV to TT interference can occur at those angles(approximately 165 degrees by Hensley Mfg.'s account).
