The only time I have used backup cams was to get lined up with the ball. For bigger trailers, I turn my body around, and for smaller ones, I use the mirrors

i'm assuming we have a page worth of OB's bragging about their driving skills and lack of need for truck innovation.

You are correct. Also that ford drivers aee vaginas and it should be shaped like a penis and called suck steer. The latter is my favorite. Good one Pop!

Yep, that shite looks ridiculously confusing. Do you turn it right and the trailer goes right? is that the real right, i.e. towards the passenger side, or the right in the camera view, which is driver side?

this innovation isn't needed for the chevy's because chevy's can't even pull themselves around much less a trailer. Better one Pop.

No wonder I can't use them. Thought it was the other way

FIL's suburban is only vehicle I've driven with one. Good to make sure no kids behind me.

and would be very handy when hooking up a trailer. I don't have one, but I do think they're one of the better gadgets to come on vehicles in the last few years. As for the back up steer suck stick, it amazes me how few people can back a trailer. This will not help them much either. If the price of trucks keeps going up we'll be able to hire a full time driver to chauffer us around about as cheap. I hope mine knows how to clean fish.

When the arguments comes up that "You think you know more than the engineers at _____" I'm going to reference this.

I put one on my 04. I have a tall toolbox and the tailgate is high, so I can't see cars behind me. I use it all of the time when I need to back up close to something. I mean, you can get an inch away without getting out of the truck

Best I can tell, it just turns the wheel the opposite way of the knob.

Really stupid. Learn how to use mirrors. That would be useless on anything bigger than a utility trailer. You won't be able to see the tires.

Hope this invention doesn't ruin our yearly trip to Moon Lake Launch on 4th of July to watch the trailer backing skills of Mecca's finest.

My brain will simply not learn to use the backup camera. If I make myself try to use it I go full retard and I have no idea what is going on.


I 2nd this. Wife's vehicle has one and I simply cannot make myself look at it.

What's going to prevent one of my smart arse buddies from reaching over and giving that little wheel a spin just as I'm starting to back out the driveway
