2. Backup Camera

Backup cameras have become prolific throughout the auto industry, with the government even considering making them mandatory, though in no other segment does the backup camera as much usability as a pickup truck.

Experiencing the trial and error process of hooking up a trailer alone is an excruciating waste of time akin to finding the burnt-out bulb on a string of 1000 Christmas lights, and can wind up leading to dented bumpers or worse. Now, with the modern backup camera, hitching up solo has never been easier.

Trailers aside, drive a pickup downtown and the camera will help you wedge that bed into the tightest spots.
