Newbie to Camping Trailers

Welcome to the forum. I had one that size a couple of years ago. It towed very well with a E-2 weight distribution set up. The thing with shorter trailers is that they turn fairly fast when backing them. The secret is to get it to start to turn and then follow it around, don't keep your wheels turned sharp. Practice will help you with that. Have fun and enjoy the new trailer!

I agree with dcb's statement about shorter trailers turning quickly when backing up. However, I also back up with 10ft utility trailers so my 17 ft TT seems slow to turn. Just get out and practice, practice, practice.

Thank you for the response. I have load levelers and a sway bar. I have been backing a 16 foot flatbed trailer and an 8 foot single axle trailer for years. Had more trouble with the small trailer.
Looking forward to getting on the road with this small rig.
