OK, agree that lowering tailgate (assuming you have that type of rear
access
on the burban) installing the white boat guides at the rear trailer
corners
and raising the trailer tail lights are all good things. But, have you
considered trailering mirrors? They are very helpful to me as I can
adjust
the mirrors to the point where I can see the triler tires at all times.
I've learned that dunking the tires to about the halfway mark on the
fenders
is about perfect for launching or power loading.

Yes I have.

And I haven't put them on because they are freakin' ugly. :)

They also make backing into the garage into an interesting experience,
especially if you only have 1/64" clearance on either side before
demolishing the pegboard holding all the shovels & rakes. :-) Fortunately,
with the side markers I have, the white PVC pipes lift right off the metal
base posts, which gains me an extra 4" on either side. Sometimes the captain
even remembers to remove the posts. :-)
