Mark,

I don't know if you are considering buying a trailer or not. They have advantages and disadvantages as have been discussed on this site before. But, I can count on one hand the number of times I have had to disconnect the tow car in order to back up or turn around. If you carefully plan ahead you can avoid having to turn around.

I have pulled a horse trailer (it held 2 horses). It was difficult to back up because it had a short tongue. If you are thinking about buying a trailer the longer the tongue the easier it will be to back up in a straight line.

Hope this has helped!
