Using a Trailer Valet 5X

[@robertcourtney6913]

Wow this thing is really cool! I didn't know such a thing existed. This would make getting my boat in and out of the garage so much easier cause it requires a lot of maneuvering. Thanks, great video!

Thanks! And yeah as The Director noted, they have a huge variety of those movers, some are full on little robots. Totally should check out trailervalet.com. We're not sponsored by them lol as Uncle Jake pointed out but we do think their products are awesome!

Thanks for the video. You addressed basically everything I was concerned about. Do you think it will work on a gravel incline of about 10 degrees for 7 inches of ramp?

If it's fairly loose gravel, I kind of doubt it. If it's a heavy trailer, it's hard to get the whole thing moving without peeling out. I did get a hand crank for it, and it was easier to start slowly. That drill was spinning too fast, and was hard to control. If it's hard-packed dirt, and the trailer isn't too heavy, it might work. It's hard to say.

Just saw your vid. Thinking of getting one. About the drill kicking like that, was the drill on low speed?

[@MotorsandMischief]

We asked Dr. Torque and this is what he said: "It was on the lower speed, on the lower geared connector of the Valet. I couldn't have moved it any slower than that with the drill. Later, when I got the hand crank, it was easier to go a bit slower. It kicked like that because I didn't keep the brake handle completely at the highest point, and the Valet was applying the brake. I think it was a bit touchy, and maybe they all don't apply the brake as easily." Hope that helps, thanks for asking!

Just think if we had sponsors...

[@wildbrosNW]

Haha! One day man

Actually it does work you guys doing it wrong. It doesn't work in debt or mud. It's on only flat services maybe on a hill but on flat surfaces so you're doing it wrong

[@MotorsandMischief]

You might not have watched the whole video but we figured it out and it worked great. Been using it for years now and we quite like it. But thank you for the comment!

500 lbs tongue weight and 5000 total weight.

[@MotorsandMischief]

Like 3-ish Uncle Jake's for tongue weight and like 30 Uncle Jake's in total capacity.
