Anytime I am in the truck and have a load in the bed or I am hooking up to a pull behind trailer, that rear view camera is invaluable. The car has "surround" cameras showing not only the back up picture (with clearance lines that you quickly learn how to use) but also front and side views to aid in determining clearances in those directions. It sure cuts down on complaints by management that I parked too close or too far from the curb or adjacent vehicle.

The car also can use the camera system for a wide screen rear view mirror. But I find it to be a bit disorienting when in motion. Fortunately, it has a normal rear view mirror capability. I am definitely a fan of the cameras. As BB_TX wrote, I just don't twist and turn as well as I used to.
