Backup cams were 2018 actually.

My 2013 Ford Escape Titanium has a factory backup cam and proximity sensors. :old:

I'm old fashion. I've got three mirrors that look back and a neck that can still crane around enough to see for backing up.  :old:

That is my preferred method.  I like the camera for backing into parking spots and my garage.

Agreed.  The camera is in addition to the head turning and mirrors, not in place of it.  It does allow you to see things you wouldn't otherwise have an angle on with mirrors and windows.

Although, I will say that my older vehicle without the backup camera seems to have much better window visibility than my newer one with it.

Only when I have to!  I haven't used it this year at all, not counting training in the sim.

Now the autopilot... I can't live without that.

Do you kick your feet up on the instrument panel when you take a nap?

If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

No, it is too high.  I just use the pull out tray table.  Or the F.O.  >:D

Be polite and take your shoes off if you use the F.O.
