Sometimes there is a simple solution to a pain in the neck process.

When trying to align a car or truck to a trailer ball without an
assistant you can set up a mirror to watch the ball and hitch as you are
backing up. Look at the above pictures.


Damn, where were you a month ago when I posted a picture of mine? I caught
a ration of crap 'cause I used duct tape to hold it on. It works well
though!

Here's a picture of it before I added the duct tape. It's an extension
mirror sold by auto parts stores for trailer towing. Cheap.
