There are similar bogies or dollies (that's a link to just one) sold to enable 5th wheel trailers to be towed without a device using up the while bed or by a large SUV. How would you back the trailer with this thing?
The Stingerhitch is nothing more than a more compact version of these bogies.

How would back the trailer? This unit is stationary, the wheel doesn't ossculate. Therefore all you have done is move your pivot point back about 18 inches. It would give you a smaller turning radius

I'd put my Expedition in Reverse to back the trailer. I can't think of any other way.
I've no idea what this device would do to the turning radius. Nor why it would make a difference. Probably gonna be tire scrub, just like what happens with the dual axles not.
You're asking questions like I'm trying to sell you this device. I'm not.
