Default Re: What made you feel good today?

Towed a trailer with the new work car today. It was a 1750kg cherry picker so yeah it was noticeable behind the ute, but the extra torque was also noticable. My old diesel ute was a manual so hill starts with heavier trailers was a bit of a punish on the clutch, new ute is a diesil auto. So it tows nice. Could not see the trailer the whole drive though so not being able to judge my legnth made lane changes in sydney traffic a tad more stressful then they should be. That being said, i still wouldnt go back to a tub and canopy with windows, the service body is so easy to work out of. Reversing, im deffinately going to need a spotter. I can reverse a trailer easy, but not being able to see it is, well, parking sensors dont do anything backing trailers.
