Looks like it may have been easier to blind side that trailer in that hole. Only thing is you can't see out your back window and would rely heavily on your right mirror. At least you'd have a better view of that car in back of the camaro. Very tight fit indeed. I could do it after my left leg has nearly fallen off tho from clutching. GOOD JOB! Very nice tractor, I drove a 2009 Pete same model.
