Question:
I want to use this for backing up and parking my RV trailer in a narrow spot next to my neighbors car of the alley. As it is, I open all the windows in the truck, my wife stations herself somewhere and tries to yell loudly enough to be heard over the constant beeping of my trucks backup warning system that senses my trailer and thinks I am going to hit it. Can this be pointed straight back, rather than down at the ground? Does it have a wide angle view? Thanks

We definitely need to get you something to make the parking process a lot easier on you and your wife! The Rampage camera # RA7710 would have to be placed on a level surface to point straight back. A metal bumper is a good option. It doesn't have a wide angle lens but if you are looking for a system that doesn't require a separate monitor then the Rampage camera is for you.
Otherwise I like the Swift Hitch system # 04928. It is also wireless and also has a magnetic base but the camera portion is smaller and easier to manage. It does have a separate monitor (included) so you won't have to worry about compatibility between the camera and a phone or other device like you would with the Rampage camera system.
I think that no matter which system you decide to go with it will make your life a whole lot easier!
