Picking up Dad's Rare Tractor

What happens here

The presenter reverses his white Dodge Ram pickup truck towards the gooseneck flatbed trailer. He then gets out of the truck and manually cranks the trailer's landing gear to lower the trailer's hitch onto the truck's gooseneck ball. Once hitched, he secures the trailer by stowing the landing gear and then drives away from his farm, towing the empty flatbed trailer. He confirms his destination is Martinsville, Virginia, where his dad resides, located in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Goal: Securely attach the trailer and begin the drive to the dad's farm.
