Attaching a small ball hitch trailer.

[CK_Zay]

Hi guys. I'm putting this here for anyone who was a little confused about how to attach one of those little trailers you pull with a ball hitch because I couldn't find a discussion online and it literally took me a week to finally get it.

So anyway, all you have to do is:
1. Pull up behind the trailer with the hitch almost touching and STAY IN YOUR CAR.
2. There should be a little button control display pop up on the right (if you haven't disabled the display) and simply press the corresponding button.

For me personally, I was confused because you can detach the trailer from the outside by highlighting and toggling the ball hitch. Logically I thought that's how you attach trailers too but I couldn't. The little control icon I was talking about doesn't pop up until you're pretty much up against the hook point and the menu is so small I didn't notice. So at first I thought it was a bug and just didn't bother with trailers until now.

Oh yeah I'm sorry "tow hook" wasn't the best word choice.

Also, once trailer is attached be sure to go out and raise the landing gear (the metal pipe that keeps the front of trailer from falling on ground) by looking at the landing gear and pushing X.

if you want to detach the trailer, also remember to lower the landing gear before detaching trailer

Just passing by to say you helped! Honestly, my biggest issue with the game by far is the lack of clarity on things sometimes =w=
