Learn to use your side view mirrors. You'll thank me later. I never put the tailgate down on a pickup, open the latch on an SUV, or anything like that even with an empty jet ski trailer. It's so easy to see and control the empty trailer by using side view mirrors. I can't remember the last time I actually looked over my shoulder while backing up a trailer but to each their own. I'd have no issue pegging a small trailer with inches of clearance on each side, but I've also been doing it for so long (I drop my jet ski in and out of the water every weekend in the summer).
