Just finished reading all the posts here as I am considering a camera for the rear on my TT. I want something on constantly for traffic viewing as well. Obviously a wired system is more reliable and probably less expensive but I have one question...how would one go about running a wire the length of a travel trailer? I'm sure under the unit is the easiest place but how difficult would it be to get it down through the rear wall, or would you just use small wire clips and surface mount the wire down the back on the unit then seal them real well. Sorry if this is hijacking the thread.

๐ Hi, I use a Garmin RV 760 GPS with a wireless back up camera for my trailer. They have newer versions now.

If you want it for backing up go the Garmin route. If you want it for observation behind your trailer while on the road don't. Garmin's setup does not have the refresh you need while moving at speed. The car you see on your trailers bumper on the monitor, may have already moved to the left and be beside your trailer at the time.
๐ Hi, this is not my experience. The picture is not free flowing / smooth, but very close. When I can see the entire front of the big rig in my camera, I have completely passed it.

Now and then I think about buying a backup camera, then I remember that I never have a problem backing in. I'm sure I'm not the only one, either. Is it really that much better?
Backing is a trivial function for the camera. Clearance for changing lanes and seeing vehicles right on your tail is where they shine.
