I always hook my trailers up by myself - and I don't have a reversing camera. Never had one in my life, and never had a problem hooking up to (or reversing) a trailer. [biggrin]

Like I said tech makes us dumb, although I have one of those stupid poly block things. And a jockey plate not wheel.. if you can do that from a mirror first time everytime your doing well.

I can back it.. But once it's hooked up

My grandfather had a bicycle flag on the top of the hitch and another on the car just in front of the towball. Drop them in, and back it up until the flags are in-line. You're bang on first time, every time. Genuine 1963 tech.

With the D3, I drop it down to access mode, back it up using the camera and lift it off the jockey wheel before I get out of the car. It has the technology, I might as well make the Hilux driver in the next van bay jealous.

By the way, super thread necro!
