i wouldn't either unless it was on a rail. its impossible to back two let alone 5 trailers.
in some parts of the world they call that a road train.

I have never tried to back up super B's, but my dad has told me its really not that bad to do!

I can whip a 53 foot tri axle around pretty good, Id like to have a chance at super b's sometime!

Ah the double axles, so much nicer to turn! Sometimes when I was out in alberta I sure wished we had tandem trailers, the triaxles, in some of those tight turns, got pretty annoying to wheel around.
