Back Up Camera Recommendation

Maybe I'm getting lazy but I'm tired of getting out of the truck 4 times when backing up to hook up my trailer. I have a dump bed on my truck which makes visibility even worse when backing.

I have noticed several fairly inexpensive backup camera systems on ebay (under $175) that seems would be an invaluable investment. Does anyone have any experience these aftermarket camera systems as far as what to watch out for?

Here is a link to one. They have a video that loks too good to be true.....or
not?

Re: Back Up Camera Recommendation

I purchased one of these last April before the show season began.

Swift Hitch Trailer Hitch Aligner Portable Wireless Camera System with Night Vision 04928 : Trailer hitch bike rack and trailer hitches - etrailer.com

It is more expensive than the one you posted. The reviews I read were good.
I used it for the first time at the Gettysburg meet and it was GREAT.
The "night vision" infra red feature is a very NICE feature to have when hitching up in the dark.
Having used it this year I can honestly say it was worth every penny.

Good luck with your search.
