Is the new trailer not prewired for a wireless camera? Mine is for a voyager camera system. Their kit is about $300.

With my Alpine head unit it has a second camera input. Voyager makes a receiver so I can plug right into that so no extra monitor on the dash. The head unit will also superimpose the colored guide lines. So all I have to do is put cones where the colors change, measure and then when backing up I will now know the distance based on the colored guidelines. If your truck does not have a front camera you might have the connections on your stock display that you can tap into.

With all that said does no one make a RV backup cam with the guide lines? Seems to me a no brainer as they would give a good frame of reference for distance behind the rv if you do the steps I mentioned above.
