Is There a Backup Camera to Use to Help Load My Truck Bed Camper on to My 1999 Ford F-250

Question:

See make and model above. Has anyone reviewed using this system to load a truck camper, slides onto truck bed, bed area of the camper hangs over the truck cab. Where would you suggest mounting camera to assist loading camper. Tailgate removed. Better to mount on the camper or the truck? Appreciate any input or advise if a different model camera system is better for this situation.

I have not seen any reviews or anyone actually trying to use the Swift Hitch Digital Wireless Hitch Alignment Camera and Monitor - Night Vision - 8-Hr Camera Battery # SH02Digital to load their truck bed camper. Any camera that will help you load your camper will have to be removed and I have another option I think will work a little better and easier for you.

The option I have is the Rear View Safety WiFi Hitch Backup Camera System - Wireless # RVS-83112-WiFi. This camera will connect to your phone or tablet and will allow you to place it anywhere on your truck.

The camera is magnetic, so I recommend putting it either on the frame of your bed next to your cab or on the cab itself. As you begin to back up you will have to remove the camera to avoid crushing it.
