Those of you that have this system. How happy are you with it. I am considering one and would appreciate any comment or reccmendation for a rear camera. Thanks

Wouldn't be without it. I use it a lot as a rear view mirror. When backing up, often times Kat doesn't even get out of the truck.

Curious about the wireless. I have read where a lot of people are having difficulty with the wireless camera's because of the distance from truck to real of 5er. What did you do to take care of that problem if any?

A few years ago, I heard nothing good about the wireless, but with the advances the manufacturers make daily it seems, maybe they are OK now.
I bought my system from Tim@rvcams great service, pricing and warranty support.
I have the system for the Montana and also installed on on the truck, the screen has an A-B switch.
My vote is 'Yea'

I have said this before. I love mine when it worked. I have had it for over 4 years, and 80% of the time it has not worked. The camera was replaced once. The monitor has been replaced twice, most recently last May. We left home in mid May for a 4 month road trip. It did not work for the entire trip, even though it had just been replaced 2 weeks before we headed out. After we got home, the techs at lazy Days said they found a loose connection in the wall. Right now it works, but I have not had the rig out since September.

Ours came factory installed. We don't do anything but turn it on. Signal is great.

I as well am looking into getting a wireless back up camera, however the choices seem to be limited. Please keep us updated with your experience with this project.

Wow!! The company sure is proud of them things. Just looked on Amazon yesterday and if I was looking at the right thing cost is right around $650.00!! Guess you can look at it as a safety measure so it's hard to say to costly, but yikes!!
