Backing up to an inclined and narrow driveway
Hi All, Greetings from a soon-to-be first-time trailer owner. My wife and I finally decided to buy a Coachmen Clipper 16RBD trailer. We are excited. I'm watching youtube videos on how to backup ...

We had a similar situation at our previous house. The driveway gained 5 feet in elevation over 50 feet in length. There was maybe one foot clearance on each side when backing-in beside the house. My wife and I got the job done and parked the trailer after each camping trip, but it was a pain. I always dreaded going home and parking the trailer.
It was such a pain that we decided to move to a new house that would accommodate the trailer. We had a new house built with a level U shaped driveway that goes around the house. The trailer has it's own parking area with 30 amp hookup, water and dump station. It's great to simply pull-through when entering or leaving. This was not the only reason we moved, but was certainly one of the reasons. I know that moving sounds like an extreme fix, but we are now happier campers! :)
