Aftermarket back up warning sensor ?

[Milacron]

Just moved from 03 Superduty to 07 Dodge 3500. The one thing Ford had that Dodge doesn't that I liked was the back up sensor. When you put it in reverse, you'd get beeps when the rear was within aprox 4 feet of an obstruction...as you got closer the beeps would increase in frequency. You could even use this to tell how close you were to your trailer hitch once you got the hang of it.

Anyhoo, does anyone offer an aftermarket version of this ?

Alternatively I do have the NAV system and could in theory have a rear camera installed but I'm thinking the beeper thing might be cheaper and better for those 'unexpected' obstructions that might 'creep up' on me. Thoughts ?

Yup, I had an '05 F-150. I fell in love with the back up sensors and missed them tons when I traded for my CTD. I've looked into the Bullydog Backup Sensors, but just haven't went down that road yet. There's just been too much other fun stuff I've wanted to do!!! I believe I'll probably have a set on my truck within the next year or so....:thumbsup
