I got one of these as a gift. Never used it yet. 1 more thing to store (2 things, really).
In the time it would take to get the things out, set them up, plus the time to put them away...you could just have ball & coupler aligned the old-fashioned way, including getting out of the truck 2-3 times.

I just use my wife, took a while to figure out her hand signals, but know we got it down after 40 years. I keep thinking I will trade her in for a camara.

I bought those and they never stood straight from the beginning. The one on the trailer would always lean to one side or the other.

I have a shell on the back of my truck and placed a US flag sticker on the back window right over my hitch I then placed a US flag sticker on the front of my trailer centered and about 1" higher than the one on my truck. Bring them together and hook up.
