    Default question on the brand new semi's

    With all the new high tech stuff out there, I was curious on the new semi's do they have a camera stalled in the back so you can see behide you. Maybe when your backing up or just for security reasons. Like for example GrayHound or even the tour busses I have seen them there like a screen montior and you can see all around in your blind spot. Just curious if they have that out yet. or If thats a thing never going to happen? not sure just wondering lol.

    You can add one yourself for a couple hundred bucks. I imagine it might be an option from some manufacturers but I'll be willing to bet that it is a $1,000 option for $200 worth of equipment.

    Now far ahead the Road has gone,
    And I must follow, if I can,
    Pursuing it with eager feet,
    Until it joins some larger way
    Where many paths and errands meet.
    And whither then? I cannot say.

    all i've seen on the us express trucks are the cameras that make blind side backing a little more safe

    Camping World sells those.

    Are you gonna move that camera from trailer to trailer?
    Might as well install back-up lights on the trailer too (which is an excellant idea) :wink:
