Maybe that didn't help at all, but once you have to drive a full size truck, it doesn't take long to realize you often HAVE to back in if you want to park.
Just as Peryn says, as soon as you drive a full size truck you'll learn that backing in is the only way to go.

It works just like parallel parking...you always back in to parallel park...at least you're supposed too.
