I did not want them when I bought my truck but the truck I picked out had em, now I love em. sure makes it easy backing into parking spaces. My wifes Tahoe did not have them and after 2-3 weeks she said she sure missed them after driving my truck so I bought some aftermarket ones did the install and she's happy again-at least for a little while!! lol

I love it and wish it had a front sensor as well with the truck as tall as it is sometimes it is hard to tell how close you are.

Well worth the money, nonetheless.

Like everyone else, I love mine. BUT, if I were ordering a new truck I would get the backup camera instead. Or, get both, but I'm not sure there is any reason to have both. The camera is just too cool.

I would never buy another vehicle without them. I have them on my car and my truck. They have saved my *** more than once. However, they can cause bad habits when you are not in a vehicle with them. I have also used the camera in other vehicles. The best option would be to have both the camera and the sensors. The camera is great for showing you exactly what is behind you (obviously) however, judging distance in the camera is near impossible since its a fisheye lens. So using the sensors to tell you exactly how far away from something that the camera showed you would be sweet! Can I get the vehicle assisted parallel parking option while we are at it?
