Wow, you went from one extreme to the other. You chose wisely. Backing up the larger trailer makes it worth it alone. Trying to back up my 5 X 8 trailer is trickey. I have backed up boat trailers for years with no problems, but with the short trailer, it becomes a tricky job. I have a utility trailer (very small) and pull with my Foreman. Backing up is almost impossible. Longer is always better. Looks great. Good luck with it, you did well. Congrats.
