My new to me truck has a camera and it definitely helps. This would be good for the trucks without cameras. I'm really surprised that it is reasonable priced.Pretty cool invention, since both of my trucks have backup cameras it's easy to back it up right the first time.
Absolutely, this guy is going to make a killing. I remember the days before backup cameras, getting in and out of my tow vehicle dozens of times if hooking it up by myself or having my Wife giving me signals, was a total pain in the ass. I just hooked up our boat an hour ago, used the backup camera, one try it was done.My new to me truck has a camera and it definitely helps. This would be good for the trucks without cameras.

On my previous truck I used the same harbour freight visually aid, they whitened pretty good and like you days they were cheap.Looks a little to much for me, lots of moving parts subject to failure between my tow vehicle and trailer. I use rear view cameras as well but have also used rods like these and cheaper versions ($10) from harbor freight successfully before. Very easy to use, just put one on the ball and one on the trailer (they have magnetic ends), line them up visually and stop when the one on the ball falls off.

It is definitely a leg killers just like the one I'm using on my new truck, a Gen-Y Hitch. The Gen-Y Hitch is a beast but is rock solid well pulling. I don't leave it installed because with the truck in the garage I can't close my garage door unless it is removed.Cool looking idea....but no need for me as I too have a back up camera. Also....if you thought a normal hitch was a leg killer....this thing looks like it will hurt....
You need a bigger garage!!!It is definitely a leg killers just like the one I'm using on my new truck, a Gen-Y Hitch. The Gen-Y Hitch is a beast but is rock solid well pulling. I don't leave it installed because with the truck in the garage I can't close my garage door unless it is removed.
