    Can I give you a couple of tips reversing?
    Line up your combination straight , or as best as possible, while backing in to your desired spot. This has two benefits. Alex can stand at the back driver side corner of the van, where you want to place it. Then that gives you a guide of where you’re aiming for down your driver side mirror. When you do get into position, in a straight line, then there shouldn’t be any twisting energy in your caravan axles/tyres. Therefore, when you unhitch, the drawbar won’t fling sideways like you have experienced and questioned in previous episodes.
    Also, communication is key. But you don’t even need handheld devices. If you have a clear view of Alex, simple hand gestures is enough to communicate directions.
    This is my experience, working 30 plus years in transport. Cheers.

    Go and get you some of the BOS leveling legs they are made tough and can lift the van complelty of the ground with ease and safety. Love you guys. Note we lost our beloved Beagle Dexter a few months ago so sad. Sorry to hear about you Dad hope all is well and our praise are with you all at this time.xx

    You need to use a handheld UHF when giving Luke directions Alex . It makes communicating so much easier 😊

    For the love of Jesus buy some handhelds so you can communicate with each other while reversing and/or finding that “perfect” spot. We are newbies too but good & effective communication is the key. Maybe do a caravan towing course? We learnt SO much about varied aspects of caravanning, especially reversing! Master left hand down/right hand down to direct Luke into the spot he needs to get into! I know this video is a few months old, so maybe you have done these things already but a few investments can make what seems hard tasks a lot easier and ultimately less stressful 😊

    Can always let the tyres down on the opposite side to get your level. I’m sure you have a compressor to pump them back up when you leave. A lot to be said for air bags. 😊

    You hit that tree stump, I could see from your camera view from front of caravan, that you were gunna hit it. Probably first with the step and then the caravan wheels would've just scraped along the edge of it, lucky you did tear the walls out of the tyers.. Take a look @31:40 >. Funny how the camera stopped working just before it happened, or it was edited out.

    Why are you digging holes????? Use the levelling ramps, its not ment to be 100% straight, you need 1-2° of offset for runoff when it rains or the A/C condensation to drain off the roof or to pool in the awning
