I took my 3400 directly from the dealer to a truck driving school and did a couple hours with them. Built my confidence immensely. I never pulled a trailer before in my life. One other hint the instructor taught me was in regards to railroad tracks and that is not to pull up to go through unless you have plenty of clearance to do so. Stop well back of the tracks so the trailer is not caught on the tracks as the light may change or traffic causes you to stop early. And always SWING WIDE, ESPECIALLY ON THOE RIGHT HAND TURNS. Don't be afraid to use two lanes to do so......
