Good After Market Back Up Camera

kenmac · Mar 6, 2016

I have an 07 ram truck.. It doesn't have a back up camera like most of the new trucks...
Looking for opinions on a good back up cam, so I don't have to keep getting out of the truck to see if I'm lined up correctly to my trailer coupler / hitch..
Anybody added a back up cam to their truck for backing up to a trailer ?

I wanted a backup camera and GPS for my truck so I got a Garmin 760. The GPS is decent and the camera is ok. It's a wireless on that ties into your reverse tail lights so the camera only comes on when in reverse. I use it to backup to the hitch all the time.

We got one for a van from Rear View Safety. They seemed to be good people to deal with. Received a defective unit and no hassle getting it replaced.

After a lot of research we got a "wired" unit. Saw a lot of reviews that folks have much more problems with the "wireless" models.

I bought the $50 package for my tractor and it works pretty well so I bought another for my truck. That large screen works great for backing up to the trailer. Here's the link. It has a wire that connects to your back up circuit but I didn't use it. Mine is on all the time so I can see traffic behind me. Works great that way to see the small sports cars behind you that you can't see in the mirrors.
