Grant - doin good!
First thing I DID NOT miss about my TT was those dang equalizer bars. I broke an arm and a rib with those stupid things when I wasn't paying attention.
It is hard to get used to the less reactive backing on a 5er over the TT. Like others have said, you need more room to put an angle on it than your TT. In fact, when I triple towed with the boat on the back I was surprised to see I could actually back out of a gas station as if I knew what I was doing. The moderation of reaction when turning really helped.
I am still extremely bad at backing with the angle to the right side. Once I loose sight out the right mirror, I'm blind and done. I can do pretty good on the left just by hanging my head out the window and looking back. Unfortunately most of the campsites we hit require a right turn backing. Someday I'll figure out what the secret is.
